Drouhin Chassagne-Montrachet 1er cru Morgeot Marquis de Laguiche 2019

93-95 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Pale lemon colour, the nose is quite discreet. Reserved at first with a block of dense white fruit behind, some greengage notes but still feels fully, correctly ripe. No lack of density here, racy and steely at the finish. (Nov 2019)"

92-94+ points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Marquis de Laguiche is also very promising, wafting from the glass with aromas of pear, mandarin orange, white flowers, warm bread and baking spices. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, with a deep and layered core, lively acids and a seamless, harmonious profile, it's one of the highlights of the range. (Jan 2021)"

92-94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot 1er Cru (Marquis de Laguiche), which went through complete malo, has an almost feisty bouquet of lemongrass-tinged tropical fruit that sports just a tiny reduction. The palate is very well balanced, and a striking line of acidity imparts great tension. Quite complex on the finish, this offers appealing ginger and apricot notes on the aftertaste, plus the sapidity to encourage you back for another sip. Excellent. Drink: 2022-2038. (Dec 2020)"

91-93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from Le Grand Clos and Vignes Blanches). Notes of petrol and rosemary oil add breadth to the ripe and softly exotic white peach scents. There is good verve to the relatively refined medium-bodied flavors that flash terrific persistence on the balanced finale. This will need to develop better depth to achieve the upper end of my projected range, but it appears to have the potential to do just that. Drink: 2027+. (Jun 2021)"

92 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "There is a lovely balance of ripe apple and lemon peel of great purity on the nose, and on the palate an exquisite balance between freshness and rich extract, leading to a rewardingly lingering finish. Produced from the 2.26ha holdings of the Marquis de Laguiche, using a selection of the best four parcels in this vintage. Drinking Window: 2021-2034. (Oct 2020)"
