plum and salted almond

despite yield reductions due to early frost and August sunburn

all wrapped in an overtly saline-inflected finale that is austere

Jean-Marc Pillot, Chassagne Montrachet Vergers Vintage:2023 plum and salted almond(from 50+ year old vines in Vergers proper). A markedly floral infused nose is laced with notes of pear, apple and citrus rind trimmed in just enough wood influence to notice. Once again there is a lovely texture, if barely average density, to the attractively vibrant flavors that exhibit solid persistence and reasonable depth on the clean, dry and nicely balanced finale that is firm enough to reward mid term keeping.
