The 2014 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Grandes Ruchottes has a very complex bouquet that you have to keep nosing and nosing...white peach, honeysuckle and white flowers, all with a captivating underlying mineral seam. The palate is very well defined, a little richer than the Morgeot with dried apricot and citrus fruit, the tongue just tingling with mineralité (literally) after this just fabulous white Burgundy has departed. My visit to see Alex Moreau at Domaine Bernard Moreau in Chassagne completed my third week in the region on a high. The bottom line is that Alex has overseen some potential stunning expressions of a fecund white Burgundy vintage. He's a winemaker on a roll at the moment. His 2012s and 2013s attested a winemaker furnishing wine-lovers with some of the appellation's most expressive, mineral-driven Chardonnays that tread that fine line between nervosité and flavor. There is no way you would describe these are austere wines, yet they were so full of energy that my mouth was tingling with glee long after I had left his domaine, walked straight around the corner and procured a bottle to drink with Mrs. M over the weekend.
