About Domaine Morey-Coffinet

A Legacy in Chassagne-Montrachet

Founded in 1978 by Michel Morey, son of Marc Morey, and his wife Fabienne from the Pillot family, Domaine Morey-Coffinet quickly became known in Chassagne-Montrachet. In 2009, their son Thibault assumed full responsibility for the domaine. His leadership brought a conversion to biodynamic farming and a reputation for wines that combine clarity, texture, and a strong sense of terroir.

Vineyards and Farming Practices

The domaine farms approximately nine hectares in Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, and Saint-Aubin. All parcels are cultivated organically and biodynamically, with plowing by horse in select vineyards, cover cropping to build soil health, and a strict avoidance of synthetic treatments. These practices lead to naturally balanced fruit that speaks of place.

Winemaking Philosophy

In the cellar, Thibault employs long élevage, often 18 months, and uses oak with restraint, usually around 20 to 30 percent new barrels for village wines and more for premiers and grands crus. Extraction is gentle, always aiming to preserve finesse. For Chardonnay, the style is precise and mineral with underlying richness. For Pinot Noir, the focus is elegance, fine structure, and red-fruited purity.

Wine Style and Reputation

The domaine is widely recognized as one of the rising stars of the Côte de Beaune. The white wines balance energy and texture, while the reds show clarity and refinement. Critics frequently highlight the precision and generosity of Thibault’s work, establishing Morey-Coffinet as a name to watch in Burgundy.

Domaine Morey-Coffinet: Precision and Purity in Chassagne-Montrachet

A Family Estate Rooted in Burgundy

Founded in the late 1970s, Domaine Morey-Coffinet brings together two of Burgundy’s most respected families: the Moreys of Chassagne-Montrachet and the Coffinets of Meursault. Today, the domaine is led by Thibault Morey, who represents the new generation of Burgundian vignerons — deeply tied to tradition, but also forward-looking in farming and winemaking.

Vineyards in the Heart of the Côte de Beaune

The domaine’s 9 hectares of vineyards are primarily in Chassagne-Montrachet, with prized holdings in appellations such as Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. These parcels, rooted in limestone and clay soils, yield both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of striking terroir expression. Old vines, many planted in the mid-20th century, form the backbone of the domaine’s finest cuvées.

A Commitment to Organics and Artisanal Farming

Since 2014, Thibault Morey has farmed organically, with the estate certified in 2018. The philosophy is to keep interventions minimal and let biodiversity thrive in the vineyard. Soils are worked carefully by hand and horse, composts are used to support natural health, and chemical treatments are avoided. This natural, artisanal approach ensures wines that are vibrant, authentic, and transparent to their terroir.

Winemaking Philosophy: Tradition with a Light Touch

In the cellar, the focus is precision and balance. Grapes are harvested by hand, fermented with native yeasts, and aged in French oak — typically with a restrained percentage of new barrels. Whites like Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets show layered citrus, stone fruit, and mineral drive, while reds such as Bourgogne Côte d’Or Pinot Noir display finesse, red-fruited brightness, and subtle spice. Across the range, the wines are elegant, finely textured, and built to age gracefully.

Why Morey-Coffinet Matters Today

Domaine Morey-Coffinet is emblematic of Burgundy’s new era of fine, family-run producers: small in scale, meticulous in practice, and globally respected for quality. With organic certification, artisanal winemaking, and an unwavering respect for terroir, the domaine produces wines that capture both the depth of Burgundy’s heritage and the freshness of a new generation. For anyone seeking fine, terroir-driven Burgundy from a small family estate, Morey-Coffinet belongs at the top of the list.
