Caroline Morey, Chassagne Montrachet Champs Gains Vintage:2020 this is just the beginning

this is just the beginning of a long cellar life

And a spicy

crisp and dry finale that exhibits slightly better depth and persistence

pure and nicely intense middle weight flavors that are supported by equally ripe structural elements on the long and balanced finish

essence of pear and a whiff of citrus character

Caroline Morey, Chassagne Montrachet Champs Gains Vintage:2020 this is just the beginning(from vines planted in 2009). An airy and pretty if not especially dense nose combines notes of white orchard fruit, especially pear, with those of citrus, wood and resin. The delicious and round flavors also display good punch that contrast somewhat with the youthfully austere and reasonably long finish. This will need to add depth if it is to merit the upper end of my projected range. (89 92) 2024+
