Benoit Moreau - Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru La Maltroie 2023

Neil Martin: "The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Maltroie 1er Cru comes from two lieux-dits within the vineyard. It has a riveting bouquet with superb mineralité considering the growing season, scents of wet limestone percolating through the citrus fruit. There is plenty of energy and vibrancy. The palate is quite powerful on the entry—a Chassagne that has grip and substance. Complex and slightly nutty toward the persistent finish, it leaves you wanting more. This is a strong follow-up to the spectacular 2022."

The Wine Advocate: "The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Maltroie is lovely, wafting from the glass with notes of pear, sweet citrus oil, freshly baked bread and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, it's pure, precise and racy, with chalky structuring extract and a saline finish."
