Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Clos de la Chapelle

"The 2015 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Clos de la Chapelle is already quite expressive, wafting from the glass with a lavish bouquet of poached pear, vanilla bean, yellow stone fruit and toasted nuts—very similar to its showing from barrel. On the palate, the wine is textural, full-bodied and rich, with notable chewy extract, impressive mid-palate presence, and ripe acids. While this is an undeniably rich, ripe white Burgundy, everything is in harmony and the wine's considerable reserves of concentration and structure make me wonder if it could surprise with bottle age."
