Tasting notes
Outstanding<br /> A vaguely exotic and softly smoky nose features notes of cool ultra-pure aromas of white peach, passion fruit, anise and citrus blossom. The delicious and impressively intense middle weight flavors brim with dry extract on the bitter lemon-inflected finish that delivers excellent depth and persistence. This is also extremely good for the relatively young vines. Recommended.

Unfurling in the glass with aromas of pear, confit citrus fruit, freshly baked bread and ripe cantaloupe melon, the 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanée is medium to full-bodied, satiny and sensual, with a broad and textural attack that segues into a layered, fleshy core of fruit. This, too, is very promising.
