Description
From Les Chênes, Morichots and Les Puits Merdreaux.
This is aromatically similar to the Santenay but with the addition of pretty floral top notes and a hint of the sauvage. There is a bit more volume and power, if different refinement, than the medium-bodied flavours that deliver very good depth and persistence on the lightly rustic finale. This is very good for its level and worth considering.
Drink from 2027 onward

Critics reviews
Neal Martin 87-89/100
The 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet Village Rouge) has more cohesion and freshness on the nose than the Santenay. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh acidity, a grainy texture, attractive red cherry and cranberry fruit, and a slightly brittle finish. Fine.
Drink 2024 - 2029
Jasper Morris MW 87-90/100
Made from five plots of which four are Chênes, so there is no vineyard denomination. 25% whole bunch vinification. Both deeper in colour than the Santenay and brighter, while the bouquet is a bit livelier. Very peppery finish, the tannins are not too aggressive.
Drink 2025 - 2028

About this wine
Chassagne-Montrachet
When it comes to the world's greatest white wines, the border between Chassagne and Puligny is the treasure at the end of the rainbow. Within a few hundred metres lie five wonderful Grands Crus, three of which are in Chassagne. They are led by the luscious Le Montrachet, to which Chassagne gained permission in 1879, along with Puligny, to hyphenate its name.
