2022 Bouchard Aine et Fils Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru

Vintage : 2022

The Weather : Uncertain conditions, but mild in the end throughout the season!

The harvest, running from 25 August to 16 September. The grapes were beautifully healthy, with varying degrees of ripeness depending on the exposure.

Balanced, honest white wines. Maturing ought to bring just the right degree of roundness to red wines with varying qualities, depending on the maturity of each plot. We have both sophisticated, fruity red wines with a good Burgundy tension as well as rich, warmer ones.

A pleasant vintage in terms of quality with excellent yields for both whites and reds. The vinification choices have been crucial as to whether to favour acidity or the alcoholic degree.
