The Domaine Michel Niellon Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Champgains appears a golden lemon color in the glass. Aromas of white blossoms, pear, resin and a touch of matchstick character. lead to a ripe juicy yellow pear and apple palate that intertwines with minerality.
Grapes fermented in stainless steel tanks and near the end of fermentation, the wine is transferred to small oak barrels to ferment dry and complete malolactic fermentation during barrel aging. Batônnage is used sparingly as the wines of Chassagne are already rich.
Burghound Review:
This is aromatically similar to the Maltroie though with evident floral elements. There is slightly better volume and mid-palate density to the delicious and caressing but punchy medium weight flavors that possess a healthy amount of sappy dry extract while exhibiting better overall depth and persistence. This too should be approachable young but easily repay mid-term keeping. Outstanding Drink: 2028+
