2021  Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Les Caillerets

Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Les Caillerets ---- "A spicier nose freely reveals its aromas of both white and yellow peach and a whiff of jasmine tea. Here too there is very good mid-palate density to the medium weight flavors that aren't quite as powerful though they are finer and more mineral-driven as well on the youthfully austere, more complex and slightly more persistent finish. Lovely and I especially like the balance that should permit this to age gracefully over the next decade." - Outstanding, Burghound

2021  Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Les Fairendes

Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Les Fairendes ---- "A discreet application of wood sets off aromas of olive oil and a vague suggestion of the exotic. There is impressive richness to the opulent and generous medium-bodied flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract while delivering excellent length on the compact, serious and powerful finish. This is a typical Morgeot of power and richness though without the usual rusticity." - Burghound

2022  Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru

Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru ---- "Here too there is just enough wood to merit pointing out framing the fresh and airy aromas of white flower, pear, apple and discreet spice wisps. There is even better volume to the caressing and enveloping medium weight plus flavors that possess focused power on the impressively long and very dry finale. This is a wine that should repay 6 to 8 years of keeping." - Burghound

2022  Chassagne-Montrachet

Archaeological findings confirm the ancient village of Chassagne used to be occupied by a Roman society. The Romans planted the vines and built the city, hence the name "Romanée." From a 0.81 hectare parcel of vines planted in 1957 at a higher altitude of Chassagne, protected from the north wind by a stand of trees. Aged 15 months in 228 and 350 L oak barrels, 35% new. ---- "Here too there is the barest suggestion of the exotic lurking in the background of more floral-suffused aromas of Granny Smith apple, spice and a similar hint of wet stone. The middleweight flavors are not as concentrated but they are noticeably finer, particularly on the overtly stony, chiseled, youthfully austere and superbly long finale. This excellent effort will also need to develop more depth but that should merely be a matter of exercising a bit of patience." - Sweet Spot Outstanding, Burghound ---- "Mid lemon yellow. The bouquet shows an extra degree of ripe fruit, and a little less the limestone freshness of Caillerets. This is more backward, with an additional intensity, significantly so. Grows across the palate, still fresh limestone to finish, but with an extra éclat. Drink from 2029-2036. Tasted Oct 2023." - 4/5 stars, Jasper Morris MW

2021  Puligny-Montrachet 1er Les Pucelles

Puligny-Montrachet 1er Les Pucelles ---- "In contrast to all of the other wines in the range, this is quite firmly reduced and revealing nothing of interest so be sure to allow this some time to air if you're tempted to crack a bottle young. More appealing are the gorgeously textured and vibrant medium-bodied flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract that also buffers the moderately tightly wound finish where a touch of austerity slowly emerges. This pretty effort could use better depth but a few years of bottle aging should be helpful." - Outstanding, Burghound

2020  1er Cru Climat du Val

1er Cru Climat du Val ---- "More interesting are the rich, delicious and relatively generously proportioned medium-bodied flavors that exude a subtle minerality on the bone-dry finale. This refreshing effort is certainly pretty though it lacks a bit of overall depth." - Burghound

2021  

"In bottle. A baby Chassagne on the nose, along with a touch of reduction. Good backbone, some riper fruits at the back along with a touch of wood, with the thread of acidity of the vintage to finish. Holds on well at the back. Drink from 2024-2026. Tasted Oct 2022." - 4/5 star, Jasper Morris

2022  

From a 0.96 hectare parcel in the village of Chassagne, both the Santenay and Puligny sides, planted in 1988, 2001, and 2012. Aged in 10 months in 228 and 350 L oak barrels, 25% new. Unfiltered.

2021  Chassagne-Montrachet

Chassagne-Montrachet ---- "This is also attractively cool and airy with its array of various white orchard fruit, zest and rosemary oil scents. The rich and solidly concentrated medium-bodied flavors exhibit better depth and length on the moderately rustic finale that is notably more tightly wound. This is a good Chassagne villages that should drink well after only a year or two of keeping yet repay 5 to 8." - Burghound

2022  Chassagne-Montrachet

"The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Village, a blend of three parcels, has a taut and focused bouquet, reserved initially, unfolding with wilted white flowers and light waxy aromas. Quite understated. The palate is well-balanced with neatly assimilated oak, orange rind and slivers of white peach, leading to a waxy-textured, satisfying finish. This is a well-crafted and quite delicious Chassagne-Montrachet." - 91pts Vinous

2019  1er Chassagne-Montrachet

1er Chassagne-Montrachet - "The 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet En Cailleret 1er Cru has an attractive bouquet with grilled walnut and light smoky scents hovering in the background. The palate has a creamy opening: vanilla, chestnut and touches of white chocolate, but discrete segueing into a delightful, spicy finish. This is drinking beautifully now, even if it needs a few more months to subsume the oak, but it will keep for another decade." - Vinous & Outstanding, Burghound
