A refined white Burgundy from the Côte de Beaune, this Chassagne-Montrachet 2020 reveals intense floral and ripe fruit aromas. Full-bodied and smooth, it delivers richness with a long, lingering finish. Crafted from Chardonnay grown on marly limestone soils, it's a classic expression of the appellation’s elegance and depth.

On the south of the Cote de Beaune, the village of Chassagne became Chassagne- Montrachet in the 19th century, thereby benefiting from the notoriety of the mythical Grand Cru which it shares with Puligny. Facing east-south-east, the vineyards are planted with both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay which produces some of the finest white wines in the world. White Chassagne-Montrachet has an intense bouquet and remarkable persistence.
