Chassagne-Montrachet

The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Village has a well-defined bouquet with green apples, Conference pear and a touch of pressed flower. The palate is balanced with a pleasant edginess, quite lively and poised, more energy than the Rully Village and sporting greater persistence on the finish. This will be early-drinking, but at the same time, very satisfying. From the hill of Corton running south to the town of Beaune and Santenay at it`s tip, the Côte de Beaune represents the southern half of the vineyards of Côte d`Or. It is famous for its mix of Grand and Premier Cru white and red wines including Montrachet, Corton, Puligny, Pommard and Volnay. In the cellar alcoholic and malolactic fermentationtakes place in a Burgundian piece. Aged in wood it lasts from 10 to 18 months depending on the vintage followed by bottling. Before bottling, the wines rest in steel for one to three months. ABV 13.5%
