The 2009 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Grandes Ruchottes was tasted from a splendid magnum, and it continues to be a beautiful expression of the vintage. The richness of the growing season is conveyed by the nose, courtesy of scents of dried honey, almonds and a light, Riesling-inspired petrol scent. The palate shows a touch of viscosity on the entry, but the wine's acidity is perfectly tuned to counterbalance that. Maybe because it came from magnum, it was a little more youthful than a bottle version, although it suggested it will continue to evolve over the next decade. If you want a Chassagne-Montrachet overflowing with flavor and class, this is where to come. Tasted May 2017.
