NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Paul Pillot Les Mazures Chassagne-Montrachet is a delightful example of a classic white Burgundy, offering a complex and well-balanced nose of white flowers, citrus, and stone fruit nuances.On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and vibrant, with a nicely textured acidity that carries flavors of juicy peach, honeycomb, and white pepper. The finish is long and vibrant, with a lingering saline character. A truly superb Chassagne-Montrachet that will only improve with time.
