Founded in 1978 when Michel Morey and his wife Fabienne Coffinet combined vineyard parcels they'd received as wedding gifts. Michel Morey is the son of the late, highly regarded producer Marc Morey, and Fabienne is the daughter of Fernand Coffinet from the equally distinguished Pillot winemaking clan. So, with this rollcall of Chassagne icons at its core, it remains decidedly Chassagne to this day, with almost all of its Domaine holdings lying within the Chassagne-Montrachet borders, the one exception being its premier cru Puligny Montrachet Les Pucelles. Morey-Coffinet also includes grand cru parcels in Batard Montrachet and Corton Charlemagne, as well as many other premier crus.
"More yellow in the colour, a waxy flesh, slight evolution in the sample, I cannot quite see the stones up front. They do appear on the palate and the wine extends very well through to a flinty finish, with some saline notes right at the back. Drink from 2028-2034." 91-94/100, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
