Tasting notes
Bright light-medium yellow. Tightly wound aromas of lemon, lime and smoky minerality. Quite dry and restrained, but already showing personality to its citrus peel and crushed stone flavors. Subtle, pure wine with excellent definition. Finishes chewy, salty and long, with a lovely light touch for the year.

The 2015 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanée has a lightly honeyed bouquet with scents dried apricot and dried pineapple emerging with a few swirls of the glass. The palate is well-balanced, the oak enmeshed within the citrus fruit, touch of hazelnut and spice surfacing towards the finish and lending it a Meursault-like personality. There is clearly respectable complexity here and this represents one of Maison Louis Jadot's better 2015 Chassagnes.
