Suggestion from April 16 2025
Wine: 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet
Producer: Domaine Henri Prudhon et Fils
Comment: Cool and beautifully layered aromas display hints of smoke and rosemary oil on the ripe and fresh essence of pear scents. There is again excellent richness and mid-palate density to the solidly powerful medium weight flavors that exude a subtle minerality on the lingering, balanced, clean and nicely dry finale. While this could use better depth, the overall quality is impressive for a villages-level wine, even one that is 50% 1er. Worth considering.
