"The 1998 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Ruchottes displays aromas of toasted hazelnuts, minerals, and crisp, ripe apples. This broad, deep, powerful wine is packed with lemons, pears, and gravel-like flavors. Medium-bodied, intense, and admirably long, this well-defined, flavorful wine should have the potential to withstand the test of time."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Chassagne-Montrachet is a village AOC in Burgundy's Cote de Beaune with numerous Premier Crus, renowned above all for rich, nutty, mineral Chardonnay whites, though it also makes firm Pinot Noir reds.
