Joseph Drouhin, Chassagne Montrachet Morgeot Laguiche Vintage:2011 Deeper and a little richer

Deeper and a little richer on the nose than the Rennina and more genuine

This too will need a few years of cellar time first

But it will get there

along with acacia blossom and jasmine hints

Joseph Drouhin, Chassagne Montrachet Morgeot Laguiche Vintage:2011 Deeper and a little richer(from Le Grand Clos and Vignes Blanches). A deft application of wood frames the overtly floral suffused nose of petrol, white peach, lemon zest and subtle spice wisps. The medium bodied flavors are also rich to the point of opulence, yet the firm acid spine saves the balance on the saliva inducing, long and powerful finish. This fine effort is very Morgeot in character and worth a look.
