Note di degustazione
The 2014 Chassagne-Montrachet La Grande Montagne 1er Cru has a fresh, crushed limestone, Granny Smith and yellow fruit nose that bursts from the glass. It has wonderful tension, quintessentially Chassagne. The palate is well-balanced with sensual quince, popcorn and light toffee apple notes. This is approaching its peak now. It is pretty tender towards the finish, with a residual spiciness that is very appealing. Excellent. Tasted at Stannery Wines' producer tasting in London.

Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, the 2014 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru La Grand Montagne from Paul Pillot came across as very austere at first, much more malic than other Chassagne-Montrachets from the higher vineyards, detailed yet rather aloof. The palate is fresh on the entry with vibrant acidity, a touch of spiciness toward the second half and good vigor. This appears to open up, gain its voice during aeration, and I suspect that with bottle age it will turn into a very fine Chassagne.
