2017 Berry Bros. & Rudd Chassagne- Montrachet by Domaine J-C Bachelet

Description

Our 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet has been made for us by brothers Benoît and Jean-Baptiste Bachelet, from vines farmed using biodynamic principles. The 2017 vintage produced beautiful white wines with ripe fruit and precise acidity. Aged for 18 months in oak barrels, this is richly textured and complex, with citrus, white peach and vanilla spice notes underpinned by a firm, lace-like acid backbone.

About this wine

Chardonnay

Chardonnay is often seen as the king of white wine grapes and one of the most widely planted in the world It is suited to a wide variety of soils, though it excels in soils with a high limestone content as found in Champagne, Chablis, and the Côte D`Or. Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
