The finest sites of Chassagne’s 1er Cru Morgeot (where 20 separate lieux-dits can be bottled) lie in the upper sector, above the main road, on poorer, white soils. Les Fairendes is one of these sites. Thierry Pillot once told us that his grandfather used to say that this vineyard—situated just below Les Caillerets—was the finest terroir within Morgeot (Pillot has no holding here, so we can take his word to be impartial). This wine is as far from your average Morgeot as you could imagine. Benoît Moreau farms just 0.10 hectares on what he describes as the most limestone rich part of the vineyard.
“Pale colour, less immediate nose, all in white fruit. Excellent concentration of pure white fruit on the palate with the density of Morgeot but the flair of the upper part. Just a little citrus to finish, a tiny bitterness to assist the acidity."
