Reviewed June 2015Here too there is a hint of matchstick on the smoke-suffused nose that is comprised primarily by notes of lemon rind, rose petal, petrol and a hint of resin. There is outstanding richness to the full-bodied and generous proportioned flavors that possess admirably good mid-palate concentration before terminating in a powerful, textured, complex and impressively long finale. This is excellent and worth a look. *Sweet spot, Outstanding*

The 2013 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru les Vergers has a very generous, almost tropical-tinged bouquet: guava, dried mango, hints of grilled almond and brioche soaring from the glass. The palate is rounded in the mouth with notes of orange sorbet and peach. Fortunately, any blowsiness is avoided with a keen thread of acidity that keeps this lovely Les Vergers focused and tensile. This is worth seeking out. (NM)

Tangy peach and pear aromas are complemented by a stony quality. Sweet and charming but juicy too, in the style of the Chenevottes, with bright stone and orchard fruit flavors lifted by a perfumed floral element. Not a particularly fleshy style but boasts lovely vivacity. (ST)
