- 75cl
- ABV 13.5%
Though a ‘villages’ wine, the Chassagne Montrachet ‘Les Chaumes’ hails from a vineyard bordering the Premier Cru ‘La Boudriotte’. As a result, it offers an expression that is very much of a ‘superior’ ‘villages’ standard, with Puligny-like acid on the finish that cuts through intense fruit on the palate. The Premier Cru ‘La Boudriotte’ is as rich and silky as the ‘Les Chaumes’ is tight and racy. Sourced from 28-year-old vines planted on clay soil, the palate is rounded with a supple texture and a perfume of white flowers lingers long on the finish. The Premier Cru ‘Les Caillerets’ offers an even greater step up. Though more closed on the nose, a hint of flint gives way to a wine of superb class and balance. It will undoubtedly reward patience and develop further complexity with extended ageing. Made in tiny quantities the Grand Cru ‘Bâtard-Montrachet’ is also exceptional, with a lovely grainy, nutty fruit character that seems to last forever.
