2018 Bruno Colin Chassagne-Montrachet

On the nose, this complex Chardonnay wine is charged with bags of stone fruit, flinty minerality and a hint of new oak. Round and fleshy peach, apricot and mirabelle plum flavours balance zesty acidity and a silky-smooth finish. Already expressive and indulgent enough to enjoy young, the taut, mineral backbone suggests a good future if you can resist that long.

From 1.71ha of vines across 9 plots of clay-limestone , this Chardonnay from Bruno Colin is a great example of the classic mineral notes of Chassagne-Montrachet. Delicious now and will further develop complexity and roundness over the next few years.
