Domaine Niellon Michel Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru 2019
Burgundy wine Clos de la Maltroie
An expressive nose that is very Chassagne offers up notes of red berry fruit, underbrush, humus, damp earth and pepper while leading to fresh, vibrant and nicely detailed middle weight flavors that are relatively forward, indeed this could be drunk now with enjoyment. A Chassagne of finesse.

"Here too there is discreet but discernible dollop of wood on the spicier and more elegant aromas of black pinot fruit, earth and floral suggestions. The racy, intense and notably finer middle weight flavors exude a subtle minerality on the beautifully textured finale that is both more persistent and more complex. This is also very good and worth checking out.

Here the pretty nose is fresher still with its layered mix of red and dark raspberry scents that are cut with plenty of earth influence. The rich and caressing but attractively punchy middle weight flavors possess evident power on the dusty

The 2018 Beaune Clos des Mouches is totally beautiful. It shows gorgeous inner perfume and a weightless, gracious personality

An exuberantly spicy nose combines notes of plum, dark currant, violets and underbrush. There is terrific intensity and a lovely minerality to the ripe and well-delineated medium weight
