Description

2017 Chassagne-Montrachet, Les Petits Clos, 1er Cru, Domaine Jean-Noël Gagnard, BurgundySituated on the slope above Morgeot, the soil at the top is chalky, whereas the lower part is very red and heavier. The nose has charming honeysuckle notes, while on the palate there is both weight and energy in abundance, a pleasing dichotomy of dense richness and mineral freshness. Drink 2023 2030. After the catastrophically small vintage last year, Caroline is much happier with the good but in no sense excessive crop of 2017. Indeed, her organic

sage and mocha abound

And like many 2010s it is a broody bugger

and we are not disappointed

elegant and powerful with huge potential

Readers who can find the 2012 should not hesitate

This needs at least 5 years and will keep until 2017 and beyond

For the Rosé

a touch of fynbos on nose and palate

2000 & 2005 it’s all the more compelling
