Domaine Bachelet-Monnot
Chassagne-Montrachet Chardonnay
Chassagne-Montrachet, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Quite different than last time I had it, last July.
Both bigger but also more mineral and fresh.
Bit of flinty nose too...
Hmmmm that was yummy, enjoyed it over three days and just got better day after day...

Peche de vigne, white peach, big time.
Intensity but big minerality and salinity too which makes it last and stand.
A super classic and quite bold chassagne-montrachet, very pleasant may be lacking a bit of sharpness.

Quite subtle, was hoping for a bit more expression but will let it unfold and see what happens. Edit: well, it was from the Coravin so of course was closed at first, 15 min later and I am hit with peaches, white flowers and a host of complexity on the palate. Bumped to 9.1

These wines deserve the hype. Peach dominates the core, good minerality and richness but all in balance.

Holy smokes, this was fan-freaking-tastic. Their wines just keep getting better and better in my opinion.

Oct 26th, 2016This is drinking well with that nice limestone minerality and a myriad of tart yellow and green fruits. More than serviceable.

Very nice villages level Chassagne, ripe apples, some lemom and a saline feel to it, straight and linear but with some depth, precise and clean, mineral and energetic, decent length, a nice 2017 with a domaine I really like. 91-92
Magnifique Villages, pommes et fruits blancs, citron aussi. Une bouche droite, assez lineaire mais avec une telle élégance et une belle classe, minéralité et saveurs franches et énergiques, finale d’une belle longueur, un beau 2017 sur un domaine que j’aime bien.

Out of balance, hot (so hot!), short finish - really disappointed
