Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 04 Jan 19
Aromas of green orchard fruit, white flowers, nutmeg and spices introduce the 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Tête du Clos, a wine that is still quite early in its élevage. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample and satiny, with lovely textural elegance, succulent acids and a long, mouthwatering finish. From old vines planted in one of the finest, highest-altitude lieux-dits within the large Morgeot climat, it's always a wine that combines amplitude with tension.
