2017 Chassagne Montrachet Morgeot

The 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot is the first crop that Dancer will bottle from this parcel, planted in 2012. Displaying notes of honeyed pears, beeswax and white flowers, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and voluptuous, with a pure, charmingly open-knit profile. This will be a delicious candidate for near-term consumption, though I expect this cuvée to gain in seriousness as the vines mature.
