Chassagne-Montrachet 2018
-
Complex and plentiful, our Chassagne-Montrachet 2018 shows pale yellow in color with golden undertones. The nose and palate are intense, marked by aromas and flavors of peach, pineapple, and brown sugar. The finish is persistent and generous, yet maintains its freshness. There is no doubt this wine will seduce us again and again over the next 10 years.
