2022, Domaine de la Vougeraie, CHASSAGNE-MONTRACHET, 1er Cru, 'Morgeot Clos de la Chapelle', Blanc, Magnum (1500ml)The 2022 Chassagne Montrachet Blanc Morgeot Clos de la Chapelle 1er Cru has a light bouquet of orchard fruit, meringue and light almond aromas. The palate is well balanced, with a clever little reduction on the entry. Fine acidity, quite spicy and poised with a marmalade tang towards the finish. This grows on you. 91 93 Neal Martin, Vinous.
