2013 Chassagne Montrachet Tete du Clos

Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Tete du Clos has a generous bouquet with scents of apricot blossom, almond and a touch of walnut, veering a little towards Meursault in style. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity. This feels lively in the mouth and demonstrates a natural sense of poise, offering plenty of detail towards the steely finish. This has plenty to offer over the next 12-15 years. Tasted May 2016.
