Caroline Morey, Santenay 1er Cru Rouge La Comme, 2020
Caroline Morey comes from one of Chassagne-Montrachet's oldest winemaking families — daughter of Jean-Marc Morey, wife of Pierre-Yves Colin — and since 2014 she's made elite red and white Burgundy from a parcel of prized family vineyards. This is her Santenay 1er Cru "La Comme," one of the village's top sites, just over the hill from Chassagne. Pinot Noir grown on limestone-rich slopes, made with native yeasts and a careful hand, it offers darker fruit and more structure than her Chassagne reds. A few years of bottle age have rounded it into something supple and complete. Premier cru Burgundy from a name in the know.
