The 2009 Chassagne-Montrachet shows gorgeous villages character. Smoke, slate and expressive yellow stone fruit are some of the notes that flow from this impeccably crafted, layered Chassagne. This is another drop-dead, gorgeous entry-level white.

The 2009 Chassagne-Montrachet shows gorgeous villages character. Smoke, slate and expressive yellow stone fruit are some of the notes that flow from this impeccably crafted, layered Chassagne. This is another drop-dead, gorgeous entry-level white. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. Richard Fontaine began harvesting the 2009s on September 6. The malos were fairly quick and were completed by April 2010. The wines were racked in June and bottled in early September. Perhaps it is inevitable with a total of ten different Chassagne premier crus in the lineup, but in this vintage not all of the wines are markedly different from each other.

Simple and straightforward. Not thrilling. (JR)
