Jean-Noël Gagnard, Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chaumees 2010

The Chassagne Montrachet Les Chaumees is currently slightly more lush and fat than the Les Chenevottes. In the bouquet citrus, grapefruit, pear with notes of acacia and white peach. On he palate rich and buttery with a good length and minerality. There is a good midpalate concentration and a fine balance from the acidity and minerality. Slightly more dense than the Chenevottes – But also a very good glass of Chassagene.

(Drink from 2018) Very Good – 90p
