Henri Prudhon  Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge Les Chambres 2020

Reg $48.99

From 48-year-old vines. Clay and limestone. East-south-east exposure. Vatted for 12 to 14 days, aged in oak barrels. Very few new barrels. Bottled after 15 to 18 months.  From a parcel of one-third of a hectare in the heart of Chassagne on the eastern side. The vines are 48 years old and they sit with an east-southeast exposure. The cuvaison is about two weeks long and the elevage lasts for 15 to 18 months. Very little new oak is used. This is an assertive wine with strong scents and flavors that tend to the “sous bois” and leather/animal; powerful with a solid backbone of tannins; a humble, honest and satisfying wine. We buy the entirety of this cuvée (approximately 780 to 900 bottles).
