Tasting notes
The 2013 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Chaumees has a touch more vivacity and citrus notes compared to the Maltroie alongside. The palate is smooth in the mouth, the acidity well judged and it crescendos toward a very harmonious and lightly honeyed finish that should be very seductive once in bottle.

Pale yellow. Scented aromas of lemon, pear drop and white flowers. Tactile, penetrating and juicy, showing a light touch to its enticing citrus and orchard fruit flavors. Good material here, and the building finish suggests that this will develop nicely in bottle for at least a few years.
