Product notes

Chassagne-Montrachet is located to the south of Puligny-Montrachet in the Côte de Beaune and is one of Burgundy's greatest white wine appellations. As its name suggests this small parcel of just 0.5 hectares is situated right at the top of the slope of the Montagne of Chassagne at an altitude of 310 metres. It is a safely hidden treasure, surrounded by vegetation and only accessible by a small dirt track.

Tasting notes

Our Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru "La Grande Montagne" 2022 has a bright pale yellow colour. The nose unveils scents of yellow peach and vanilla, while the palate is full and fresh, revealing aromas of mango and toasted hazelnut. Mineral finish.
