Medium yellow color. Wonderful bouquet of pear, butter caramel, citrus, spices. Fat and grainy texture, butter notes, green fruits, spices. Complex with great depth and long finish, this is doing great just now. At home with Susanne.

shared with pat at selkirk manor to celebrate the end of the work week. with summer approaching, have been scouring the cellar for white wines that had been hidden away for too long. for this wine, kept hoping to see notes from others to provide guidance which never appeared. last tasted 8/2008. the wine has come a long way since then. paired this bottle with wild caught shrimp and pasta. my notes are similar to last time except that color …

Slight golden color; beautiful nose of baked golden apple with similar palate, spices and chalky minerality to it. Really nice finish. At peak.

This may be the best bottle yet of this wine, and it's really hit its stride. Some marzipan and spice on the nose, with a hint of orchard fruit in the background. The palate is solid, with fresh acidity, some orchard fruit, with a light lychee note. The only nit is a somewhat disjointed and bitter finish, but this is otherwise quite a nice Chassagne premier.

Intense, straw colour, almost sparkling with life. Nose taking on some notes of complexity, rich citrus fruits, underpinned by a subdued but persistent minerality. Almost a sweet minerality on the palate too, notes of honey and tropical fruits> Very persistent. Drink 2012 -15?

A fair amount of toast on the nose at first, white flowers, a bit of tropical fruits, and lemon curd. Rich in texture with a stoniness/ minerality that I like a lot. All the while while maintaining its lift and freshness. Excellent midpalate presence and focus here. Quite long on the finish. This is quite enjoyable and while drinking great right now may get a little more complex in time. 91 pts.

This wine was drinking very well. Crisp, lively with nice fruit, minerality and balance. Had this with pan seared halibut over a salad. Don't know how long this wine will develop but pretty fine right now.

This is a huge step up from the last bottle, which initially seemed to be slightly corked, then oxidizing -- clearly there was something wrong with it. This bottle, on the other hand, has lovely aromas of apples and toast, with nice complexity on the back end. The palate is perhaps just a tad loosely structured, but the nice apple aromas show up in the flavors, and has nice length on the finish.

Very different from the last bottle I had about a year ago. Initially I thought it might be very slightly corked. The nose was slightly musty and otherwise very muted. The palate was simply odd, and almost seemed oxidized. Then it seemed to blossom on the nose, the must blew off, and white flowers came forward. But the palate seemed rather simple and straightforward, though tasty; the structure was lacking in acid, seemed a bit flabby. I'll try another bottle …

Balanced, pure, complex. Very mineral. This tasted very Meursault-like to me. Delicious, and a perfect pair to simple steamed lobster.

Very much mineral-driven with some lemon rind & citrus, some oak that's not intrusive, and a little nuttiness on the finish. Very clean, focused, balanced.

opened this bottle for ellen who came home for the weekend. had with lobster salad and crab legs. it is hard for her to express her enthusiasm but she seemed to enjoy this bottle. my notes are similar to last time. this bottle demonstrated a purity of flavor that was not present in the last one and the finish seemed to be a bit longer. i would not pay full price for this wine but might go back to see …

lots of minerals. some complexity. fruit is not pronounced. surprisingly short finish following the strong attack up front. hope that more time in bottle will bring out what this wine is supposed to be about.

No notes taken, this is written several days after drinking. Initial impression of oak on the nose, less so on the palate. Over the course of an hour or so the oak integrates well, and we are left with a very attractive and balanced, albeit somewhat straightforward, Chassagne premier.
