Domaine Guy Amiot Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru "Les Champgains" 2021, 750ml

Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru "Les Champgains" 2021 is sourced from a 0.404 ha east-facing parcel mid-slope in Chassagne-Montrachet, planted with 40-year-old Chardonnay vines on clay and limestone soils. Grapes are manually harvested and sorted, fermented in tank with bâtonnage, and undergo spontaneous malolactic fermentation. Ageing occurs in French oak barriques for 12 months, with 25% new oak used, followed by 6 months in tank before bottling.

Tasting Note:

Aromas show white flowers, orchard fruit, and light brioche. The palate is supple and mineral, with balanced acidity and a creamy texture. The finish is elegant and persistent, with ageing potential up to 10 years.
