Philippe le Hardi Chassagne-Montrachet 2021 — a full-bodied, decadent white from a great appellation.
From the family-owned Philippe le Hardi estate, this Chassagne-Montrachet is grown with a commitment to sustainable viticulture (lutte raisonnée). Chassagne-Montrachet is famed for some of the world's finest white wines, and this Chardonnay lives up to it — rich, textured and mineral.
A bouquet of ripe orchard fruits — pear and apple — with hints of honey, hazelnut and a characteristic gunflint minerality that adds a touch of smokiness. Full-bodied on the palate, round and decadent in texture, with balanced acidity and a long, lingering finish.
