CHASSAGNE MONTRACHET Les Chênes Domaine Fernand & Laurent Pillot 2023
A slightly more elegant nose thanks to a touch of floral influence is otherwise similar to the straight Chassagne. The elegance of the nose is affirmed on the middle weight flavors by a more refined mid-palate texture that is enhanced by slightly better energy that carries over to the lightly stony and youthfully austere finale. Lovely and worth considering plus Les Chênes typically ages well.
VOLNAY Domaine Joseph Drouhin 2021
(in 2021, about 20% of the blend is from the 1ers Frémiets and Clos des Chênes). A deft but still easily perceptible dollop of wood sets off airy and pretty aromas of red currant, dark cherry and plenty of floral elements. There is markedly better refinement to the utterly delicious and silky textured flavors that possess both good richness and a subtle minerality that slowly emerges on the balanced and persistent finale. This is a quality Volnay villages that is worth a look.
