2021 Alex Moreau (Bernard Moreau) Chassagne-Montrachet

Review Date: 12/2022The 2021 Chassagne villages bottling is simply stunning this year. The bouquet is precise and vibrant, jumping from the glass in a blaze of lemon, pear, a touch of fresh pineapple, a complex base of chalky soil tones, white lilies, lemon zest and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is precise, full-bodied and vibrant, with excellent depth at the core, a lovely girdle of acidity, superb mineral drive and a long, complex and seamlessly balanced finish. Great juice and premier cru quality without a doubt! 91+

A more complex if moderately similar nose offers more in the way of white orchard fruit aromas that are trimmed in subtle wood nuances. There is fine mid-palate density to the delicious and appealingly intense medium-bodied flavors that are shaped by bright acidity on the bitter lemon-inflected finale that displays excellent length for its level. This too could use better depth, but more should reasonably develop. Lovely.

Clean mid lemon, assembled on its fine lees but not yet fined. A clean, even and balanced chardonnay nose which develops a richer white fruit with a greengage edge further back on the palate. Some salinity helps provide the tension.
