A 75cl's bottle of Morges Vieilles Vignes Esprit Terroir, La Côte AOC.

The land, the landscape, the vineyard, the winemaker’s passion… all these elements make up the Esprit Terroir. Our winegrowers and oenologists work together year after year to offer the best of themselves in the Esprit Terroir range: seven exceptional Chasselas wines as well as three reds ideally adapted to the land that nourishes them and gives them all their specificities. Small daily pleasures to be enjoyed on all occasions. These wines illustrate our passion for the balance between know-how and modernity.

Morges Vieilles Vignes is the very best! A Chasselas made from old vines which has been awarded 92 points by Wine Advocate for the 2022 vintage.:

From 20+-year-old vines, the 2022 Morges Vieilles Vignes Esprit Terroir is clear and subtle yet also intense on the elegant, transparent and detailed nose that reveals bright fruit as well as earthy and flinty notes. Round and lush yet also refined and balanced on the palate, this full-bodied Chasselas is pretty charming and, in a discreet way, rich. The acidity is lively fresh and stimulatingly saline, which gives a savory and structured, persistent finish. This wine has excellent quality with aging potential from Morges.
