Chassagne-Montrachet
Rouge
From tears of rain to tears of wine, a year as trying as it is moving! 2024 will be remembered… Marked by record rainfall and omnipresent humidity, it put winegrowers to the test. Despite vigilance and hard work in the vines, mildew took over, strongly impacting yields. Significant disparities appeared between terroirs: more draining soils were better able to resist disease pressure. Fortunately, after harvest, the quality of the wines came as a nice surprise. Freshness and radiance are there, offering a precious reward after a season of challenges.

Tasting
Tasting note
This wine expresses itself with a beautiful aromatic complexity, mixing a delicate floral register with a few spicy notes, which bring a touch of character. On the palate, the tannins are well integrated. Intense nose with notes of fresh redcurrant, a hint of liquorice and minty touch. The palate, elegant and harmonious, mirrors the nose complexity. Tannins are present and structure the wine, with a great ageing potential.
Food pairings
Ideal with "œufs en meurette" (eggs in red wine sauce).
