Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 20 Jan 22
The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Tête du Clos is one of the high points of the range this year. Exhibiting aromas of pear, waxy citrus rind, freshly baked bread, white flowers and wheat toast, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and incisive, with a satiny attack and a racy spine of acidity, concluding with a long, saline finish.
