Bruno Colin, Chassagne Montrachet Maltroie Blanc

Bruno Colin, Chassagne Montrachet Maltroie Blanc(from Ez Crets). A vague whiff of exoticism can be found on the aromas of white peach, floral and citrus confit. On the palate there is again excellent cut and punch to the lightly stony middleweight flavors that terminate in a clean, bright and nicely dry finish that is well balanced. Im normally not a huge fan of Maltroie blancs but this is really quite good.

Medium to deep garnet-brick in color

The ripe red and earthy dark berry fruit aromas precede appealingly full flavors that are sweet

Deep glowing orangey gold

One for the cellar
