The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Grande Montagne ler Cru has even more reduction than the Grandes Ruchottes, but again, there seems to be good fruit intensity here. The palate is more promising, with better tension and more complexity. The finish is spicy but also quite sapid with a persistent finish. Give this 2-4 years in bottle.

Aromas of minty peach, toasted almonds and buttery pastry preface the 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Grande Montagne (Maison Louis Jadot), a medium to full-bodied, ample and open-knit wine that's seamless and charming, concluding with a saline finish.
