Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chenevottes

A faint creme brûlée floats over green and yellow citrus notes – you have to wait some time before the classic Chassagne green herbs finally appear – it’s a tight and ripe at the core. The entry is silky but quite understated, indeed indifferent, but the mid-palate just launches you into the next dimension with minerals, agrumes fruit, mouth-watering acidity and really super intensity. You’re left with a long line of finishing flavour. This is really super.

Lovely Chassagne character here. The flavours are a little linear but hold lovely freshness. There’s some minerality and a little herb in the flavour too. Good wine.
