"from two tiny parcels of vines on the Chassagne side totaling only .09 ha planted in 1923 that have never been worked by tractor because the slope is so steep and thus the vines are worked only by hand. Planted entirely to le vrai chardonnay and the parcels are part of the old Dents de Chien vineyard that were included as part of Montrachet as a result of an agreement reached in Beaune in 1921; aged in 100% new wood). Generous wood presently dominates the nose though underneath the oak notes of completely and ripe floral and white peach aromas can be found. The relatively rich, full and sappy middle weight flavors are not particularly concentrated, and culminate in a lemony and linear finish that delivers solid if not truly exceptional length 2013+."
