Reviewed June 2022An attractively fresh and bright nose is comprised by notes of various white fleshed fruit and citrus zest. There is both good volume and punch to the equally bright middle weight flavors that possess better than average depth on the clean, dry and sneaky long finale. One to consider. *Outstanding*

Attractive pale colour with a balanced bouquet, Exactly the right degree of ripeness, with perfect acid balance at the back alongside the depth of pure and fresh yellow fruit.

Wine Advocate
Scents of pear, almond paste, white flowers and green apple introduce the 2020 Bourgogne Blanc, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and precise wine with tangy acids and chalky grip. This is a promising rendition of this reliable bottling.
The 2020 vintage is another terrific success for Anne Morey, who confidently directs this 11-hectare domaine as well as her family's Maison Morey-Blanc (also reviewed in this report). In white, yields were generous, delivering classically balanced wines that get my nod as the estate's finest since 2017. In red, lower yields and rapid ripening had delivered more atypical results, with some cuvées hitting 15% alcohol, yet that was remarkably well-concealed—at least when tasting from barrel in the cellars.

The 2020 Bourgogne Blanc came from the barrels that had finished their malolactic. It offers orange rind and a touch of quince on the nose, beeswax and white linen. The palate is well balanced with a little more tension than the Aligoté, quite long on the finish. Fine. (NM)
