Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru "Vide-Bourse"

Situation

Côte de Beaune

Level

AOC Premier Cru

Grape variety

Chardonnay

Located in the southern part of the Côte de Beaune, the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation, along with Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, is part of the prestigious Côte des Blancs and is one of the treasures of Burgundy's viticultural heritage.
Adjacent to "Bâtard-Montrachet", alongside the ancient "Chemin de Couches" road, the "Vide-Bourse" Climat was classified as a Premier Cru rather late, because it did not join Chassagne-Montrachet's 21 other Premier Crus until 1974.

Tasting

Elegant, complex nose evocative of citrus fruit and flowers, which will evolve over time toward notes of dried fruit and exotic spices. Rich, intense and full bodied on the palate with subtle oak undertones. Very pleasing long, flavourful finish.

Food/wine pairing

Taste this wine with finely prepared fine fish and crustaceans, poultry and white meats, or with roasted or served in a cream sauce.
Recipe suggestion: chicken breast with mushrooms served with a creamy sauce.

Serving and keeping

Serve between 12 and 14°C (53-57°F).
To enjoy young on the fruit or to keep 5 to 7 years.
