Tasting Notes

Chassagne Montrachet at this price, no it isn’t 2001! Such a fabulous style and only available in small quantities.

A beautifully poised white Burgundy, layered with ripe peach, citrus zest and toasted hazelnut, underpinned by vibrant minerality and a long, creamy, effortlessly elegant finish.

Producer Profile

The Sorine family has made wine in Santenay since 1929. Christian took over in 1990 and was joined by his wife Emma in 2009. Short of space in Santenay, they restored a building in Cheilly-lès-Maranges, whose old cellars allow all their wines to mature in barrel.

Viticulture

Les Benoites is a small parcel just below some of Chassagne’s top premier crus, on limestone and marl. The Sorines have stopped using chemical pesticides and herbicides and do much of the vineyard work by hand.

Winemaking

Matured in barrel in the domaine’s cellars at Cheilly-lès-Maranges.

Goes well with

Roast chicken, white fish in butter sauce, or scallops.

Cellaring

Delicious young, but rewards five years or more in the cellar.
