Chassagne Montrachet Vieilles Vignes 2021 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey

Professional reviews

Vinous (92)

The 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet Vieilles Vignes, a blend of four parcels, has a fragrant nose of wild peach and light Granny Smiths, the malic element indicative of its Puligny leaning origin. The palate is well balanced with fine depth, a little more viscous and spicy in texture, fine extract here with a pleasing long finish. This will offer 15-20 years' drinking pleasure.

Moderate reduction masks everything but a touch of petrol character. The attractively textured and generous medium weight flavors possess good underlying tension while displaying fine length on the clean and sneaky long finish. I like the balance and would suggest allowing this 5 to 8 years of cellaring in order for better complexity to develop. Lovely and worth considering.

Includes Ancegnières this year. Clean pure lemon yellow. There is a nice touch of flesh suggested by the nose, though in fact the palate has a little refreshing lime note. However, there is a more classical white fruit across the palate. Less was lost here – just down 30%.
