Note di degustazione
The 1997 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Ruchottes was missing some definition on the nose, had just light touches of white flowers, but I could not discern much in the way of terroir expression. The palate is powerful, almost viscous in texture, low acidity with a dense finish. If it were not almost 20 years old you might think it was suffering premature oxidation. It is not. It is just a Chassagne-Montrachet that is a bit long in the tooth. Tasted December 2016.

Slightly more color. Deeper, smokier, more complex aromas of white flowers, apricot, and grilled nuts. Thicker in the mouth, with more thoroughly integrated acidity. Very young. Finishes dry and uncompromising, with a note of caramel oak.
