Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, Chanson's 2014 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru les Chenevottes was showing some reduction at first, but there is plenty of fruit behind it. It's not quite as clean as the best Chassagne-Montrachet and has a tang of mothballs. The palate is balanced with a waxy-textured opening and notes of apricot and Golden Delicious apples that lead to a straightforward, lightly spiced finish that tapers prematurely. This will be an earlier drinking Chassagne-Montrachet.

Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru les Chenevottes has a rather muddled bouquet at the moment and is missing the focus of its peers. Citrus fruit, dried honey and waxy scents, but this just needs a little more detail to come through. The palate is medium-bodied with a pleasurable entry, grapefruit, melon and honey with a saline undertow. Modest in length but nicely composed, I would broach this Chassagne-Montrachet over the next 8-10 years. Tasted May 2016.
