Chassagne Montrachet White 1er cru Clos st Jean 2023 - Marc Antonin Blain
-
Grape Variety : 100% Chardonnay
Here is a beautiful premier cru from Chassagne-Montrachet by Marc-Antonin Blain, a family estate descended from the prestigious Blain-Gagnard lineage. Clos Saint-Jean is one of the village's most renowned climats, located on a hillside above the village on stony, limestone soils. It produces whites that are tense, generous, and complex.
This vintage showcases the precision of Marc-Antonin's work, who vinifies with finesse and discretion, limiting the use of wood so as never to mask the terroir. The nose opens with aromas of white fruits, fresh flowers, and subtle buttery notes. On the palate, the balance is remarkable: a full-bodied texture, carried by a beautiful mineral tension, which lengthens the finish.
This is a wine that is both delicious and finely crafted, with a promising aging potential of 8 to 12 years, depending on the vintage. Enjoy now after aeration, or leave it to evolve in the cellar to discover its full depth.
A very fine Burgundy premier cru for lovers of expressive, racy Chardonnays. Quantities are very limited, as is often the case with Marc-Antonin Blain's wines.
