Côte d'Or

Les Chênes is an excellent parcel of village Chassagne just below 1er Cru la Maltroie in the centre of the village. There's excellent juice and sap and energy here - the acidity is fresh and gives a greater focus a...(read more)

Pale in colour and with fine citrus aromas and a slight vanilla touch ; in the mouth it combines the freshness of the fruit with the characteristic mineral effect of the land, smoothness and good length.

Something to get your teeth into here with a bit of smokiness and good, but not excessive, ripeness of fruit. Quite forward but well balanced.
