Les Embrazées Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2015

#chassagnemontrachet #premieurcru eagerly waited a couple of years to open this. First day, drank it too cold and paired it with gulf coast Grouper meunière-style which would have went better with a steely crisp Chablis. 2 days later from wine fridge, serving in a Pinot Noir bowl wine glass my experience was transformed as the wine warmed up gently on a cool sunny day. Lemon curd, ghee, almond paste, faint floral honey tones on the nose. Rich, almost oily mouthfeel, tension and mineral notes in the backseat with ascendant lemon curd, creamy meringue and ripe pear. Delicious layers of flavor from the last glass in the bottle. — 3 years ago

Much more expressive than 1 year ago. Nose was powerful and ripe with nice complexity. Palate was full with a nice backbone of acid. This is in great shape right now! #benjaminleroux #chassagnemontrachet #premieurcru #chardonay #burgundy #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago

Ripe crushed red fruit on the nose and palate. Med - intensity and med - complexity. The structure is intact with gripping tannins and med + acidity but there are now delicious flavors to be shown off. To me it's not past its peak so maybe it's taking a nap? #josephdrouhin #chambollemusigny #premieurcru #baudes — 8 years ago
