Chassagne Montrachet, Les Chenevottes, 1er Cru, 2018

Tasting Note:

A touch of smoky oak to the nose. The palate bursts with character offering plenty of "gras" with some salt and crushed rock notes adding welcome grip and astringency. There is a good backbone of acidity here too, cutting through the richness. A serious Chenevottes. A vineyard located at the northern edge of the village, on the Saint-Aubin side towards the bottom of the hill. The slope is gentle but enough to ensure good drainage. The soil is light clay mixed with iron rich pebbles.
