2021 Armand Heitz Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru "Maltroie" is a beautifully detailed Chardonnay from one of the classic Premier Cru sites in Chassagne-Montrachet. The nose is refined and expressive, showing white orchard fruit, lemon zest and pear, layered with white flowers, light spice and subtle flinty minerality. There is a gentle hint of rosemary oil and citrus complexity, giving the wine both aromatic lift and depth.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is exactly the kind of wine we position as a "classic Chassagne Premier Cru with elegance and balance". It sits between Puligny precision and Meursault texture, making it extremely versatile for Burgundy drinkers. The 2021 vintage is especially appealing for customers who prefer freshness, tension and less oak-driven styles. A great recommendation for those who enjoy Chablis, Puligny or refined Chardonnay, pairing beautifully with scallops, grilled fish or light creamy dishes, and capable of ageing 8–12+ years.
