| Tasting note |
Details: Five parcels of vines on a very limestone soil go into producing this Chassange-Montrachet white wine. The 2 principle parcels are situated not far from the village and have the charming names, 'La Bergerie' and 'Le Chene'.
Wine making: The grapes are hand-picked. Pressed, the juice is then fermented in French oak barrels (25% new). The wine is barrel aged until the following summer. In this way, the wine has time to integrate and confirm its personality. Bottled at the winery after aging for 11-12 months.
Particularity: The wine expresses itself in harmonious lines. A round wine with a warm body, coupled with white fruit aromas and finely integrated oak. Will easily age for 2-7 years. Consume at 14°C.
Tasting: The Chassange-Montrachet white wine matches perfectly with fish, scallops and crustaceans. Equally, open when young and serve as an aperitif.
Laurent Pillot advices: At the end of your meal try the Chassange-Montrachet white wine with cheese. |
