    The wine

    Avant que la culture de la vigne ne soit aussi répandue en Bourgogne, on trouvait énormément de truffes noires, servies notamment à la table des rois de France. Cette parcelle de premier cru en était recouverte et même aujourd'hui on peut retrouver sous les vignes d'anciennes champignonnières de truffes.
    En légère inclinaison, les sols sont composés d'une terre rouge parsemé de nombreux cailloux favorisant la restitution de la chaleur pendant la nuit et donc la maturité des raisins.
    Très parfumé dès son plus jeune âge, La Truffière allie la pureté du chardonnay à la richesse de son terroir. Vif et tendu en bouche, son nez tire sur des notes de peau d'agrumes avec des amers bien intégrés.

    Information about domain Thomas Morey

    Situated in Chassagne-Montrachet, Domaine Thomas Morey is the creation of Thomas Morey and his spouse Sylvie. It came about in 2006, with this producer representing the tenth generation of Moreys in his village; he wanted to spread his wings after working for 12 years on the family estate. His first vintage is a 2007. As you can imagine, this family history is a long one, dating back to the 17th century, the period when Claude Morey settled in the village now globally reputed for its wine. He worked in the viticultural industry, plotting the path of his descendants who would become producers, barrel- and cask-makers. Then, at the end of the 19th century, the Morey family made winemaking their main activity. Over time, the domain expanded into more parcels and wildland, building up a lovely agricultural heritage. It's with the strong savoir-faire inherited from his ancestors that Thomas Morey can now craft and offer these exceptional cuvées.
