Maison Champy Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Chenevottes
AOC Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru, Burgundy
Tasting Notes
Beautiful golden dress with green tints. The nose is intense and reveals notes of peach and apricot. In the mouth we find a toasted side, grilled due to undergrowth, accompanied by fruity touches. The attack is frank, the finish lingering and unctuous.
Food Pairings
This Chassagne-Montrachet will go very well with crustaceans and shellfish in light sauces (scallops au beurre blanc, lobster in a champagne sauce), fine roasted fish (John Dory, Turbot), poultry à la crème, and with relatively mild cheese such as Brillat-Savarin.
Winemaking Notes
Very small production. Fermentation and aging in oak barrels.
Technical Info
100% Chardonnay
