CHASSAGNE MONTRACHET Domaine Joseph Colin 2020
(from Les Meix Goudard, Blanchot Dessous and En Journoblot). There is plenty of petrol character to the aromas of white flower, rosemary oil and apple. The succulent but quite punchy middle weight flavors possess reasonably good power before concluding in a balanced and lingering finish that could use better depth. Even so, this is already quite attractive and should ultimately make for a lovely Chassagne villages.
POMMARD 1er Cru Rugiens Domaine Fernand & Laurent Pillot 2016
(from a .65 ha holding located in both Bas and Hauts that is apportioned roughly 50/50). A moderately reduced nose definitely needs air so if you’re going to try a bottle in the near-term, do aerate it well. The middle weight plus flavors possess better density and richness than the 2017 version along with equally evident minerality on the youthfully austere finish that flashes a touch of asperity but not really overt dryness. It’s not clear if this will eventually round out as I suspect that it will always have a mild edge to it.
