"Les Vergers" Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay

Another beautiful 22. From the very first sip, you know you have something special in your glass. Live a first sip.

Viscous, lightly waxy & elegant. The entry glides over the palate. The fruits perfectly ripe. Meyer lemons, green apple, pineapple, kiwi, grapefruit, lime pulp, whipped cream, excellent saline notes, sea fossils, crumbed limestone, caramel, butterscotch candy notes, understated honeysuckle, mint hues, perfect white spice tones, yellow & white flowers, perfect acidity, very well balanced, toned softly, refined elegance with an amazing long finish that land on spice & minerality.

Punchy and intense. Lime, saucy powerful honeyed notes. Really intense and reduced and long. Steely and sizzling with acidity. Impressive- almost like chassagne cordial. I presume will settle with time but enjoyable if bracing now. Excellent.

Wow!

Surprisingly subdued and lacking complexity compared to the 2018 Niellon.

Not quite as good as last bottle

Needed air then came on. Enjoyed at Les Climats in Paris. Wonderful food, ambiance and an awesome Burgundy wine list.

way too young. Just a tight ball of young wine. All the parts are there—come back in 10.
