Vinification

Pinot Noir from the Champs-Gains Premier Cru in Chassagne-Montrachet is traditionally fermented in open vats with partial whole-cluster use. Ageing in Burgundian barrels, mostly old oak, preserves the delicate fruit profile and terroir minerality. Sylvain Morey's style is marked by precision and elegance without excessive extraction.

Winery Story

Sylvain Morey is a small Burgundian domain in Chassagne-Montrachet, founded by winemaker Sylvain Morey, who comes from the well-known Morey family of vignerons. The domain specialises in precise, terroir-driven winemaking in both the white and red appellations of the Côte de Beaune. Sylvain keeps to a minimalist approach, placing primary importance on the quality of work in the vineyard.

Vineyard Story

Champs-Gains is a Premier Cru vineyard in Chassagne-Montrachet, on limestone soils with clay seams in the middle slopes of the Côte. Although the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation is better known for its white wines, reds from this plot stand out for their characteristic mineral strictness and delicate fruit. The terroir provides refined structure and good ageing potential.
