The 2011 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Vergers has a very attractive bouquet with a pleasant touch of reduction. The palate is well-balanced with light apricot and white peach notes and a very pretty, elegant finish that is graceful and refined. This is one of Thibault’s finest 2011s. Drink now-2018.
I have written about Seguin-Manuel on many occasions, ever since a memorable tasting of ancient negociant vintages back in 2005 that elicited more perfect scores than any other (three to be exact.) Winemaker and proprietor Thibault Marion’s wines have little in common with those historical bottles, but he is carving a name for himself as one of Burgundy’s most thoughtful winemakers. Since 2009, he has been cultivating his own vines organic and they were certified last year.
