Description
The Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru "Les Chenevottes" 2024 is one of the most prestigious wines from Domaine Vincent & François Jouard, originating from one of the most renowned Premier Cru sites on the Côte de Beaune. The limestone-rich soils and excellent exposure of the site give the Chardonnay exceptional precision, depth, and mineral tension. The traditional family winery represents a classic Burgundian style, where origin and terroir are uncompromisingly central.
The 2024 vintage presents itself as complex, elegant, and remarkably precise. The natural power of the Premier Cru site combines with a fine freshness and impressive inner balance. Instead of opulent richness or dominant oak influence, "Les Chenevottes" focuses on finesse, minerality, and almost effortless elegance. It is precisely this combination of depth, tension, and Burgundian refinement that makes it a particularly impressive representative of its origin.
The vinification is carried out with great care and supports the wine's complexity without obscuring the characteristics of the site. This results in a Chardonnay of exceptional class with a fine texture, mineral precision, and a long, complex finish. The Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru "Les Chenevottes" 2024 impressively embodies the elegance and aging potential of great white Burgundies.
This is what to expect when drinking
Delicate and expressive with a clear floral character. Notes of orange blossom and white flowers are at the forefront, accompanied by a cool minerality reminiscent of flint (gunflint). Subtly in the background, a hint of citrus and very fine, elegant spice.
Very delicate and smooth on the palate, with remarkable finesse. The floral aromas continue and are supported by precise minerality. The wine appears harmonious and balanced, with a fine structure, vibrant freshness, and a long, elegant finish.
Steamed or poached fish (e.g. pike-perch, cod), seafood, especially scallops or oysters, poultry in light sauce (e.g. poulard with cream), veal dishes with fine jus, goat cheese or mild soft cheeses, asparagus dishes
