Reviewed January 2024The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chaumées 1er Cru has a very attractive nose with scents of citrus peel, honeycomb and touches of grilled hazelnut blossoming in the glass. The palate is very well-balanced, the 25% new oak imparting an attractive vanilla veneer that bottle age will subsume. Nice poise here, a Chassagne that will surely reward bottle age.(NM)

Clear pale lemon yellow. The nose is somewhat neutral but this becomes very attractive on the palate, a slight custard texture, a bit of yellow plum fruit, just the right oak in the background, and enough acidity to maintain tension. Boxes ticked. A slight youthful bitterness holds the finish together. Drink from 2027-2033.

Burghound
There is a subtle phenolic character (think olive oil hints) to the liqueur-like aromas of pear and white peach. There is both fine volume and mid-palate concentration to the rich but energetic medium-bodied flavors that also possess a seductive texture on the lingering and balanced finish. This could also use better complexity so at least a few years of keeping would be a good idea.*Burghound Outstanding!*
Notes
Bill Nanson Burgundy Report: "‘A mineral and chalky style as it’s on the St.Aubin side’More classy, complex depth, sightly floral aromas. Mineral but faintly cushioned, silky with super finishing complexity that’s very lovely wine." (01/2024)
