WINE DESCRIPTION
Roux Père & Fils Chassagne-Montrachet is a premium white wine produced by the renowned Roux family in the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation of Burgundy, France. The vineyards are situated on the slopes of the Côte de Beaune, where the soil is rich in limestone and clay, providing ideal growing conditions for the Chardonnay grape. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including hand harvesting and gentle pressing, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is elegant and complex, with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a subtle minerality. It is a perfect example of the classic Burgundian style, showcasing the terroir and the skill of the winemaker.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Chassagne-Montrachet from Roux Père & Fils is a delightful white Burgundy.. It has a brilliant golden hue, with aromas of ripe pear and white flowers that lead to a rich, creamy palate with notes of lemon zest, almond and a mineral-driven finish. This is an excellent expression of the Chassagne-Montrachet terroir, and a wine that will age gracefully over the next few years.
