Tasting notes
Bright yellow-lemon. Multifaceted aromas of lemon peel, lime leaf, yogurt, crushed stone and ginger. Wonderfully smooth and refined, with exhilarating limey acidity giving punch and precision to the citrus, mineral and floral flavors. This beauty features all the Chassagne food groups. Finishes with palate-staining gingery length and no rough edges. Delivers a splendid combination of fruit and minerality, not to mention sweetness and cut.

The 2014 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanée has a clean, precise, Puligny-like bouquet with touches of wet limestone coming through. The palate is taut and crisp with sour lemon, very citrus-like with hints of almond and hazelnut on the finish. This is the kind of Chassagne that you fall in love with.
