The 2011 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Saint-Jean is drinking beautifully, unfurling in the glass with aromas of crisp buttered orchard fruit, pastry cream and subtle hints of fresh apricot. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, succulent and fleshy, with a generous core of fruit and a bright but open-knit profile, concluding with a gently chalky finish. Since Colin only produces one barrel of Clos Saint-Jean, it's typically one of the more overtly woody wines in the cellar out of the gates—even when vinified and matured in a once-used barrel—but this 2011 proves that it integrates with bottle age.
