Tasting Notes
A dazzling dress with golden undertones. The nose is expressive, opulent with fruity notes and white flowers. A very delicate set. The palate is solid and elegant at the same time. A beautiful freshness for a complex whole where fresh fruit (white pear and vine peach) mingle, but also the magnificent well-balanced notes of a delicate woody note. The minerality is very present as well as a certain salinity which gives a particular relief to the richness of this wine which will take all its potential with time.
Situation
In the south of the Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet shares with Puligny the undisputed prince of all the dry white wines of creation: the divine Montrachet (pronounced Mon-rachet). This wide and beautiful hillside brings the two Burgundian grape varieties to excellence. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay flourish here side by side due to the complexity of the terroirs.
Vinification
Traditional. Moderate pneumatic pressing. Settling of the must for 12 hours then full fermentation in the room (room = 228 l barrel). Aging on lees
