Tasting notes
The 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chaumées 1er Cru offers fresh Granny Smith apples and light granitic scents on the nose, perhaps a little Montée de Tonnerre in style. (Nothing wrong with that!) The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, fresh and lively with a poise, apple blossom and apricot tinged finish. Beautiful.

More reviews and scores
The 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chaumées is a great success, unfurling in the glass with notions of honeyed citrus fruit, white flowers and crushed chalk. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, saline and tangy, built around a bright line of animating acidity that carries through the long, mouthwateringly chalky finish.
