CHASSAGNE MONTRACHET 1er Cru Fairendes Domaine Fernand & Laurent Pillot 2022
Prominent petrol scents suffuse the more floral aromas of white peach along with ever-so-mildly more evident oak treatment. The equally rich, full-bodied and powerful larger-bodied flavors possess slightly more refinement, as well as a subtle bead of minerality on the bitter zest-inflected finish. This is excellent and a wine that should easily repay up to a decade of keeping.
CHASSAGNE MONTRACHET 1er Cru Vergers Domaine Fernand & Laurent Pillot 2022
(90% from Les Pasquelles and the rest from Les Vergers proper). Here the wood treatment is less subtle though by no means invasive on the smoky and floral-suffused aromas of mostly white fleshed fruit and citrus rind. The rich and generously proportioned yet quite punchy middle weight flavors also possess a seductive texture thanks to the sappy dry extract that serves to buffer the moderately firm and bright acidity supporting the solidly lengthy finish. This is not as dense as the Fairendes but it’s finer with fine complexity as well. Worth checking out.
