The Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot 2007 from Benjamin Leroux is starting to show. In the bouquet slightly closed at first with notes of gunpowder, but soon expanding in the glass with notes of white flowers, and orchard fruits supported with a lovely classic Chassagne minerality. On the palate lovely crisp and vibrant fruit … ripe with a nice juicy feel and energy. Love the ripe fruit and the vibrant energy .. quite elegant despite the rather rustic terrior.
