Decanter

Reviewed October 2018
Late to complete its malolactic fermentation in 2017, this wine comes from a limestone-based hollow on the northern side of the village that's particularly susceptible to frost. It's definitely a richer, slightly more exotic style, but everything is relative with Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey's wines. Bready, oatmeal aromas segue into a palate that marries pear, peach and citrus fruit. (TA)

Aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, honeycomb, spices and white flowers introduce the 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chenevottes, a medium to full-bodied wine with tangy acids and a chalky, tensile profile, concluding with a long, saline finish. This is another cuvée from Colin's domaine holdings, deriving from two plantings, one aged 45 and the other 60 years old. (WK)

Vinous

Review Date: 09/2018
Bright lemon-green. Reticent aromas of white stone fruits, fresh herbs, spring flowers and white pepper. Less unctuous than the Chassagne villages but more imploded today (these 55-year-old vines are planted on shallow soil over calcaire but are not particularly high on the hillside). Offers lovely balance and mineral energy, finishing with noteworthy rising length and brisk acidity. But this wine is less evolved and showy than the Ancegnières, which has the fat of a baby Bâtard-Montrachet. Colin noted that it was essential to control yields in 2017 in vineyards like this one that were severely frosted in 2016--and even more important in 2018. (ST)

Lean and on the sharp side, offering lemon, flint and spice flavors. Taut and unyielding now, but persists, with lemon and spice notes on the long finish.
