PYCM's Abbaye de Morgeot Clement et Emma has become one of our most popular white Burgundy offerings.
The popularity is not surprising for a number of reasons. Pierre-Yves Colin is one of the masters of white Burgundy; he's right up there with Roulot and Coche. He also has a magic touch with Chassagne, and the Abbaye de Morgeot Clement et Emma is a prime place to witness it.

There may be no one in the village of Chassagne making more compelling wines. He takes Chassagne's floral inflected richness and makes it explode with complexity with beautifully clear layers of stone fruits, flowers, spice, and wet stone.
Abbaye de Morgeot is a choice parcel of the Morgeot 1er Cru. Compared to the rest of Morgeot, you sense a distinctive grandeur of scale and refinement.
The 2019 Abbaye de Morgeot Cuvée Clement et Emma promises to be a stunning edition of the wine. As quoted by Burghound, Pierre Yves Colin says this about 2019: "I honestly love this vintage for its energy and excellent terroir transparency." Expect intensity married to purity and rigor with painstaking detail.
There's no doubt that Pierre-Yves Colin is making some of the most compelling white Burgundies around. People hunt the wines down feverishly. There's an enormous amount of excitement over their 2019s. I'm happy to have another opportunity to offer, but I should warn you that quantities are very limited.
