Sylvain owns 0.39 hectares of the Premier Cru Champs-Gains. The vines are quite old, about 60 years old, and produce a wine that is fairly full-bodied with a solid mineral structure. It is one of the finest Chassagnes from Morey. On the nose, the wine features rosemary, resin, and some citrus fruit. On the palate, it is remarkably fresh, creamy, beautifully complex, and has a convincing, long finish. Sylvain Morey is a scion of a family whose winemaking history dates back 400 years, in Chassagne-Montrachet. He is the son of Jean-Marc Morey, a respected winemaker from the 1980s to 2014, and the brother of winemaker Caroline Morey, who is the wife of Pierre Yves Colin . As expected, Sylvain Morey also studied oenology in Beaune and Dijon. After gaining work experience in France and California, Sylvain returned to Burgundy. Shortly thereafter, in 1996, the desire to discover more and a meeting with Ludmila led him to the Luberon, a large oyster-shell-shaped vineyard in the heart of Provence, north of Aix. In 2014, Sylvain's father, Jean-Marc Morey, decided to split his eight-hectare estate. Sylvain and his sister Caroline (wife of Pierre-Yves Colin ) each received four hectares. Sylvain's plots are spread across the communes of Chassagne-Montrachet, Santenay, and Saint-Aubin. He also inherited the family home at the bottom of the village. That same year, he produced his first Burgundy wines under the Domaine Sylvain Morey label. With his deep Burgundian roots and the strong self-confidence gained from his two decades of winemaking in the Luberon, Sylvain has already made an impression in the wine world with his confident viticultural style. His wines, both red and white, display immense elegance and power, an excellent mineral texture, finesse, and age well. Sylvain Morey is a name to watch
