2022 Philippe Colin Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chenevottes

Great find! This Les Chenevottes plot stands as one of Philippe Colin’s most captivating expressions, alongside En Remilly! Philippe Colin’s meticulous grape selection and fermentation in oak barrels reveal the full depth of flavors, while aging in both new and seasoned French oak—alongside careful bâtonnage—adds layers of complexity and finesse. 

The bouquet opens with elegant, well integrated oak and an inviting blend of fresh, ripe pear aromas. Known as a powerful plot within Chassagne Montrachet, this wine shines with vibrant acidity that beautifully balances its robust fruit character. The interplay between the acidity and oak offers an impeccable balance, showcasing a wine that is powerful yet remarkably poised. With its striking harmony and finesse, Les Chenevottes captures the essence of balance and quality, making it an impressive example of Philippe Colin’s craftsmanship! I highly recommended this wine!
