Note di degustazione
The 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru is consistent with my previous review (even though this bottle had been opened two days earlier). Baking powder, mandarin, yellow fruit and albumen notes on the nose are all very well defined. The palate is nicely balanced with a keen spine of acidity. It's tangy towards the marmalade-tinged finish. Very fine.

The 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets has turned out brilliantly, revealing an incipiently complex bouquet featuring scents of white flowers, Anjou pear, fresh peach, fresh pastry and flinty reduction. Medium to full-bodied, deep and satiny, it's a lively, concentrated wine with lovely mid-palate amplitude and a lively, saline finish. Inherently more open and immediate than the superb 2017 rendition, it will nevertheless merit and reward some bottle age.
The 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru is clean and precise on the nose - detailed crushed stone/limestone aromas intermingle with yellow plum, apple blossom and a touch of quince. The palate is very energetic and nervous on the entry, sporting the same reduction that I found on the 2019, though time will reveal the complexity that is locked into the Chassagne. Perhaps the most harmonious of Caillat’s 2018s.
