Why We Stock It

Domaine Morey-Coffinet makes classically proportioned Burgundy whites that drink well young but reward patience. At this price point, a proper Bourgogne Blanc from a serious grower beats generic white Burgundy by miles. This one has the mineral spine and acidity that suggest it will age gracefully through the next seven years.

Tasting Profile

Bright and mineral-driven, with the kind of understated elegance that makes you want another glass.

• Aroma: Citrus, green apple, subtle minerality
• Palate: Stone fruit, crisp acidity, well-balanced
• Structure & Finish: Clean, persistent finish with good acidity and aging potential

Winemaking

Made from Chardonnay grown in Bourgogne, fermented and aged in a mix of stainless steel and neutral oak to preserve the fruit and mineral character without imposing wood flavor.

Serving & Pairing

Serve between 48 and 52 degrees Fahrenheit without decanting. Pair it with oysters and raw shellfish, or with roasted white fish and brown butter. The acidity cuts through richness while the minerality complements briny and delicate flavors alike.

The Estate

Domaine Morey-Coffinet is a small grower in Chassagne-Montrachet working vineyards across the Cote d'Or. They produce both red and white Burgundy in the traditional style, focusing on balance and transparency rather than extraction.

Terroir

Bourgogne Blanc comes from vineyards in the broader Bourgogne appellation, where Chardonnay grows in limestone-rich soils that give the wine its mineral character. Cool-climate ripening preserves acidity and freshness while allowing complex flavors to develop at modest alcohol levels.
