Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Chassagne-Montrachet Clos de la Maltroie 1er Cru 2011 from Niellon has a relatively simple bouquet with rather clumsy use of new oak that tends to dominate the aromatics. The palate has a slight bitterness on the entry with lime and dried orange peel notes. The finish is dry and austere at the moment, almost Chablis-like, but it cuts away rather short.
