Tasting notes
Note: from a purchase of fruit. Smoky aromas of Granny Smith apple, just sliced lemon and wet stone are trimmed in discreet wood. The lilting but impressively intense middle weight flavors brim with minerality while displaying equally good delineation on the chiseled and impressively long finale. This needs to develop better depth but it's very promising and very Baudines in character.*Burghound Outstanding!*

The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Baudines 1er Cru, which comes from higher-altitude vines, has a discrete, complex bouquet that unfurls with yellow plum, jasmine and light pressed white flower scents. The palate has superb delineation, a touch of flintiness and perfect, subtle reduction. The intense, citrus-fresh finish leaves a spicy residue in the mouth. This is one of the strongest cuvées from PYCM this year.(NM)
Aromas of orange oil, white flowers and toasty oak introduce the 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Baudines, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate that's quite fine-boned and lively.
Cask sample. Deep mid lemon. Extra maturity and depth here. Tangy acidity and dry, savoury palate. Long, intense, concentrated. Sapid, salty finish. (MH)
