Chassagne-Montrachet 2021, Alex Moreau
A monumental white for its rigor and aromatic depth. The olfactory profile alternates between pure white fruits, a saline minerality, and floral notes of rare elegance. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between body and freshness. A stylish expression that confirms Alex Moreau among the top of the appellation.
Chassagne-Montrachet 2021, Alex Moreau
The 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet from Alex Moreau is a masterpiece of precision in a vintage marked by very low yields and a classic, vertical stylistic profile. Alex Moreau is considered one of the masters of balance: he manages to extract the natural richness of Chassagne while maintaining an acidic drive reminiscent of the best Puligny. On the nose, it is a tapestry of elegance: crisp notes of white citrus, crunchy pear, and acacia flowers blend with chalky minerality and a very subtle toasted-reductive note (extinguished match) that is the trademark of the Domaine. On the palate, it is sumptuous yet electric; the entry is silky and enveloping, but it is immediately dominated by a blade of citrusy acidity and a mineral sapidity that extends the sip into an endless, vibrant, and extremely clean finish.
