Pierre Brisset
Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot 1er Cru Chardonnay
Chassagne-Montrachet, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Long day. Needed greatness and I got it. Hugely expansive and mineral nose with unreal complexity. Beautiful dash of oak complexity. Sweetest most delicate wood. Airy, ethereal minerals. Palate is super elegant, complex and so delicate with wonderful purity and lift. What a finish. So elegant. Beautiful green apple and sweet lime. Loads of rocks on the finish. Crunchy. What a finish. Just so long. This is stunning and sadly my last bottle. Terrific grip and structure but that super finessed finish is epic.

May 28th, 2021Stunning nose, amazing green apples, unripe pears, gorgeous purity and discreet wood, spice, so nuanced, insane inner mouth aromas. So elegant. So pure. So clean. Stunningly detailed and so concentrated and super pure. So so so elegant. Structured and deep. Amazing depth and intense minerality. Elegant and so so deep. Elite spice. Long finish. So so good and has many years ahead of it but today it is crazy. Best bottle of this yet.
After 8-9 hours open this is crazy. Gorgeous melon, honeydew now, spearmint, almost bottarga, just so detailed and complex. A kelp/seaweed thing as well. Just so distinct. Dazzlingly pure and elegant with tactile sweetness. So long and lithe. Hugely almost overwhelming mineral finish.

Stunningly exuberant nose. Framed by discreet oak there is gorgeous lemon jelly, lime blossom, crushed rocks, fresh rain, white flowers, just gorgeous. Palate backs up the nose and more. Structured and superbly mineral, wow that minerality, it’s the essence of crushed rocks, fine lime zest, hints of framing oak, big acidity and unreal depth. Elegant and so fine but I think the youngest of the 17 Brisset whites and will need 3-4 years. Spectacular and young.

Pale gold - lemon zest, white flowers, mineral. No new oak, really like the style 😋
