Community Tasting Notes 7

  July 20, 2020 - By the half-bottle at Les Amis. This was very enjoyable - quite the classic Chassagne, showing the quality of the lovely 2007 vintage too. The nose was very attractive, with little notes of honeyed Chinese pears, a hint of beeswax, and some laundered sheets. Very pretty, almost floral, chamomile-like at points. The palate was really yummy, with the cut, thrust and definition of the vintage lent to it by a spine of bright acidity and fine mineral running through well-balanced flavours of yellow pears, lemons, and a little honey and fresh cut flowers. I really liked the balanced and fresh feel on this. There was weight, given the terroir, but this was also a wine with plenty of energy, which made it a really nice pairing for the food. Nice finish too, with a little lift of citrus zest and a hint of savoury, slatey, almost saline minerality. Very enjoyable, and starting to show well after half-an-hour in the decanter.

  First comes the lemon attack, with thick buttery note in the background. It evolves further and gains depth, texture, sharpness, a precise palate with a mineral spike. Long finish, the saline feeling that fills your mouth.
  
  Small bottle, but every bit just as good.

  June 29, 2017 - During a Confrerie tasting dinner. Light yellow. Another crisp, simple chard tonight. Good but nothing to write home about.

  December 31, 2014 - Doftar rikt av bakat gult äpple, bakad citron, tropisk gul frukt, citrongräs, kanderat, brynt smör, vanilj och lite lätt rökig stenig mineralitet.
  Smakmässigt samma rika koncentrerade frukt med frisk syra som backar upp.
  
  Väldigt god och enormt komplext! Mycket tillgängligt nu även om det säkert klarar mer lagring. 93+p
