Chassagne Montrachet Les Caillerets 2018 Lamy Caillat

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (95)

The 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets has turned out brilliantly, revealing an incipiently complex bouquet featuring scents of white flowers, Anjou pear, fresh peach, fresh pastry and flinty reduction. Medium to full-bodied, deep and satiny, it's a lively, concentrated wine with lovely mid-palate amplitude and a lively, saline finish. Inherently more open and immediate than the superb 2017 rendition, it will nevertheless merit and reward some bottle age.

Pale colour. If anything, this is more discreet than the Champgain, with a little touch of reduction which works really well here, to tame the creamy white flesh, showing a very fine balance. The 2018 Caillerets is a wine of concentration, precision and discretion.
