Chassagne Montrachet, Les Petits Clos, 1er Cru, 2022
justerini & brooks tasting note
This has more acidity, more structure and more power than Chenevottes, with a slightly riper profile of fruit alongside more intense acidity and clearer nut flavours. This will require quite a bit more time but there’s much to look forward to once it all falls into place. Morgeot is a big vineyard that has the propensity to make very full and sometimes dull and heavy wines, however Caroline's parcel is from the higher part of the Morgeot on a slope where the wines show more finesse and distinction. This parcel is called Les Petits Clos, which has appeared on the label since the 2011 vintage. Bordering the Santenay road
