Morey picked his domain chardonnay before his pinot noir in 2006, beginning on September 20. He used his sorting table to eliminate grapes affected by gray rot, and nobly rotten berries as well "unless they were nice." He described the 2005 vintage as "more complete and easier to make." In comparison, he added, "2006 is to drink earlier, but a lot of good wines were made." Morey was one of a few winemakers on my tour who compared 2005 and 2006 to 1985 and 1986.

Pierre Morey practices the same batonnage regime for his domain wines as he does for his negociant offerings:he stirs the lees two or three times a week until Christmas.He pointed out that his 2004s were very reduced from the beginning and needed a lot of oxygen.He did one more racking than usual and did not bottle the wines until May, or just a few weeks before my visit.(I will publish notes on these, and other 2004s, in the next issue.)Morey describes 2004 as a vin de garde but he believes that 2005 will be a great year."It has all the elements, and they're in balance," he said."I compare 2005 to 2002 and 1985."
