Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Grande Montagne has a lot of reduction on the nose, perhaps too much, occluding terroir expression and sense of place. The palate is concentrated with a keen line of acidity -- weight in the mouth here with plenty of citrus fruit and spice towards the finish. If it can shake off that reduction with bottle age then this could turn out to be a fine Chassagne-Montrachet. Tasted May 2016.Inc. TAX€374.35 -

The 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanée was showing beautifully, a touch of reduction dissipating in the glass, revealing notes of freshly baked bread, beeswax and nutmeg mingled with Anjour pear, preserved citrus, fresh melon and iodine. Medium to full-bodied, deep and tightly wound, with fine concentration, racy acids and a long, penetrating finish, this is broad-shouldered but tensile, auguring very well for its future evolution.In Bond€440.00 -

Pale lemon and lime colour. Here the nose is notably more backward, just in part from a light reduction, but more the wine is hiding itself for the longer term. Clean fresh fruit, with some greengage notes, really all waiting in reserve but quite an exceptional finish which grows in volume. Razor sharp. And wonderful length.

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. Although there is noticeable oak on the nose of the Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru les Caillerets 2011 from Paul Pillot, it is in sync with the fruit and is very well defined. The palate is clean and fresh with precise acidity: plenty of fresh lime and green apples with touches of lemongrass coming through. Good weight and concentration, this is a vivacious Caillerets that should age well.In Bond€1,010.00 -

Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, Paul Pillot's 2014 Chassagne Montrachet 1Er Cru les Caillerets had a lot of reduction on the nose that completely obscured the terroir underneath.
