The 2000 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Macherelles exhibits mouth-watering aromas of fresh earth, sweet butter, and rich pears. Medium-bodied and opulent, it is lush, deep, and fat. A white wine crafted for red wine lovers, it is concentrated, highly expressive, and velvety-textured. Projected maturity: now-2008.
