History
The Moreys are one of the major winemaking families in Chassagne-Montrachet, and French inheritance laws have led to a proliferation of different Morey domaines in the village. Domaine Marc Morey is now run by Bernard Mollard and his wife Marie-Jo, daughter of the eponymous Marc. This estate is perhaps less well-known than those of cousins Jean-Marc and Bernard, but it is quietly establishing a reputation as a fine source of elegant, expertly-made Chassagne. Vineyard holdings are impressively located in top 1er Cru vineyards, and the Marc Morey portfolio includes a racy, Puligny-styled 'En Virondot' as well as a richer, fatter 'Chenevottes'.
The cellars and office are located in the fine 19th century coaching inn that has been the family home for over a century now. Bernard Mollard has worked hard to raise the standards here, lowering yields and using more new oak. All the major critics now list this address as one of the rising stars of the appellation.
