Tasting Notes
Aromas of pear, freshly baked bread, nutmeg and citrus zest preface the 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Village, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and precise wine that's taut and chalky, with a pretty core of fruit and a long, saline finish. It's the domaine's biggest cuvée, and it shouldn't be overlooked, as it ages very well indeed. 91+ points - William Kelley, RobertParker.com
Assembled and fined. Alexandre will be able to bottle this without filtering and is very happy with the fining. Clear pale lemon and lime. Beautifully fine bouquet, yet again a masterful example. The blend between the fruit and the thread of mineral acidity is just exactly right and there is no feeling of four square Chassagne. The flesh emerges a little more forcefully at the finish which is exceptionally persistent. Year in, year out, this is just about the best example of village Chassagne-Montrachet available. 91-94 points - Jasper Morris
