The 2014 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru les Chaumées has a delicate nose that takes time to unfold in the glass. It never quite takes full flight, but there are attractive cold limestone and lemon peel scents to be discerned. The palate is very composed with a fine bead of acidity, gently unfolding towards the finish with hazelnut and dried honey notes. This has good potential and probably the best from the domaine this year.
