2023 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Tête de Clos, Domaine Ballot-Millot

It’s interesting to see the difference in vintage impact between the villages with two wines from the same domaine. Despite being a Morgeot, albeit one from arguably the best and most mineral part of the vineyard, the Chassagne is less rich and fruit driven than the Meursaults, supposedly because it had rain that Meursault never got. The gun flint, slightly reductive nose is a delight and it combines Morgeot weight with Tête du Clos vivacity which comes from the extra limestone in the soil. This is a seriously good Chassagne.
