Chassagne-Montrachet 2020
-
Complex and multi-layered, Chassagne-Montrachet 2020 is pale yellow in color with glints of gold. The toasty nose is marked by aromas of white flowers and nuts. The palate is fresh and perfectly balanced. The finish is persistent and generous, with citrus notes. There is no doubt this wine is capable of seducing again and again over the next 10 years.
