Tasting Notes

90-92
Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 30 Jan 25
One of the highlights of the range this year is the 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Ancegnières, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless wine that evokes aromas of sweet orchard fruit, peach, white flowers and toasted nuts. Suave and layered, with good energy and persistence, it's well worth seeking out.

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Jan 25
The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Ancegnières has a precise nose of crushed stone and Alpine stream scents, perhaps the most austere of PYCM's Chassagnes. The palate is well balanced with a tropical-tinged nose and pineapple and light guava notes, though the acidity keeps it in check. This is two slightly different wines in one, the nose quite "distant" but the palate "generous." Which one will play out in bottle?
