The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Baudines 1er Cru, a long-term contract of grapes from vines on very white soils prone to oïdium, has a very attractive nose with chalk, white peach and citrus notes. Good vigor. The palate is very well-balanced with a crisp bead of acidity. Very elegant and harmonious in style, with a dab of reduction on the finish, suggesting it will need 3-4 years in bottle and/or a long decant. But it will be worth it.
More elegant, cooler and airier aromas include those of Granny Smith apples, mineral reduction, exotic tea and plenty of citrus elements. The succulent but intense and overtly mineral-driven middleweight flavors possess good cut on the youthfully austere and sneaky long finale. Here too more depth would be helpful but that shouldn't be an issue with a few years of bottle aging.
Baudines is not a heavy cropper and there is always an oidium risk. Definitely a green tint to the colour. Some elegance, quite racy, never much flesh on the bones with this cuvée but there is certainly enough. Fine finish too.
The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Baudines bursts with aromas of spiced pears, white flowers, hazelnuts and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy, with a sweet core of fruit and a seamless, charming profile, it will offer a broad drinking window.
