Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2012 tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot has an attractive bouquet with hints of almond and freshly baked popcorn lending the nose a mote of exoticism without detracting from terroir expression. The palate is well balanced with pineapple and citrus peel on the entry. This demonstrates admirable fruit concentration and it gains weight towards the slightly waxy textured finish. This is a well-crafted Chassagne that should delight over the next 6-8 years.
