"The 2011 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Champ Gains is rich, deep and intense on the palate. It has lovely weight, richness and breadth in a pliant, expressive style ideally suited to medium-term drinking. Even though the Champ Gains is quite juicy, it also retains plenty of balancing minerality and acidity."
