"The 2011 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos des Murets fleshes out beautifully in the glass. White flowers, pears and white peaches blossom in a textured, totally inviting wine. The style is delicate and refined, but the Clos des Murets has a little more brightness and persistence than some of the other wines in the range."
