Tasting notes
Quite different on the nose compared with the village wine. More nutty, saline and stony, more complex but harder to describe because less fruit driven. On the palate, tangy, a hint of orange pith, gentle but fresh. Really long and mouth-watering. (JH)

The 2015 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru les Chenevottes has a fresh and stony nose, a touch of oyster shell coming through after five minutes in the glass. The palate is well balanced with decent weight, a touch of grassiness on the entry leading to a lightly spiced mid-palate, though the finish feels a little straightforward at the moment. This constitutes a worthy Chassagne-Montrachet Chenevottes, although I would argue that the 2014 was superior in terms of delineation and nervosité.
