Caroline Morey Chassagne Montrachet 'Chambrees' 2021
From 3 parcels of vines 1960's and early 1990's old located in Le Chene, Les Masures and La Bergerie. Pure crystalline fruit showing great style and restraint with good generosity for AC level. Average is at least 40 years-old. New vines en-fermage in this vintage. Assembled all the lieu-dits this year, though all vinified separately.
Cool and airy aromas are comprised by notes of green apple, lemon zest and a touch of rosemary oil. There is fine volume to the medium-bodied flavors that are at once caressing yet punchy, all wrapped in a lingering and delicious finish that would also benefit from developing slightly better depth. Drink 2027+. 88-90 Points. Allen Meadows, Burghound.
Pale lemon and lime. A slightly smudged nose, showing a little barrel. White fruit with a fresh mineral finish, a little lime juice, and some length. Drink from 2024-2027. (87-90) Jasper Morris M.W., Inside Burgundy, October 2022.
