Note di degustazione
The 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet Blanchot-Dessus 1er Cru was one of the big (pleasant) surprises of the tasting. It has a more composed and complex bouquet compared to others in this flight, with a little more crushed stone, blood oranges and light quince aromas developing in the glass. Impressive delineation and the oak is seamlessly integrated. The palate is well balanced with a crisp line of acidity, just a dab of sour lemon and orange rind, quite peppery in style with a bravura finish. Much better than others in this flight, this is well worth hunting down. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Blanchots Dessus saw extensive frost protection and is all the better for it. Wafting from the glass with aromas of yellow orchard fruit, pear, buttery pastry, white flowers, iodine and almonds, it's full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a deep core of fruit, racy acids and a long, electric finish.
The 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet Blanchot-Dessus 1er Cru has a slightly muted nose, grapefruit mixed with pineapple and almond. The palate is well balanced with a twist of sour lemon intermingling with orange rind and quince, though it just pulls up short on the finish.
