Score 90/100 · Drink 1992-2000, Robert Parker, Feb 1992

The Chassagne-Montrachet-Premier Cru is superior. The honeyed bouquet is intense, as are the deep, chewy, highly concentrated flavors. This big, stylish white Burgundy is filled with aromas and flavors of hazelnuts, oranges, and apples. Unctuous and extremely rich with an explosive finish, it should drink well for 7-8 years. The exceptional high quality of the 1989 white Burgundies is further evidenced by the top notch offerings from Jean-Noel Gagnard. While many of the 1989 white Burgundies are strikingly opulent and forward, these wines have the structure to go along with the great stuffing they possess. Importer: a Christopher Cannan Selection - various importers.

The exceptional high quality of the 1989 white Burgundies is further evidenced by these top notch offerings from Jean-Noel Gagnard. While many of the 1989 white Burgundies are strikingly opulent and forward, these wines have the structure to go along with the great stuffing they possess. The Chassagne-Montrachet exhibits a moderately intense, oak-tinged, orange and apple-scented bouquet, medium to full-bodied, fleshy flavors, low acidity, and a powerful finish. Burgundy's villages wines are frequently indifferent, but this is a fine effort. Importer: a Christopher Cannan Selection - various importers. Wine Advocate.February, 1992
