NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

On the nose, expect a complex bouquet of ripe citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, intertwined with delicate floral notes of white flowers and acacia. There is also a subtle hint of toasted almonds and a touch of vanilla from the oak aging.
The palate is rich and full-bodied, with a creamy texture that coats the mouth. The citrus flavors continue to dominate, accompanied by flavors of ripe pear and a touch of honey. The wine displays a beautiful balance between its vibrant acidity and the richness of the fruit.
The finish is long and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and finesse. This Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru 'Morgeot' Blanc is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential to age gracefully for several years, allowing its flavors to further develop and evolve.
