2024 Château de la Charrière Chassagne-Montrachet "Les Champs Morjot"

The 2024 Château de la Charrière Chassagne-Montrachet “Les Champs Morjot” is the kind of wine that says all the right things right off the get-go—please, thank you, those are great glasses, nice work today—while holding the door open with a smile. Everything is right where it should be: notions of apple tarte tatin with a light, flaky crust, bright lemon zest with a touch of pith, and a subtle apple finish. Savory notes of flint and Marcona almond add poise and balance, keeping the experience polite and even a little bit flirty. It’s a fantastic value for such a handsome, thoroughly pleasing sip—equally enjoyable on its own or alongside a roast chicken dinner, or at brunch with a mushroom and spinach quiche.
