Michel Niellon Chassagne-Montrachet Les Vergers is a luxurious white Burgundy wine crafted from Chardonnay grapes in the picturesque slopes of Chassagne. With only 3,000 bottles produced, this rare gem offers a golden lemon hue, an exquisite bouquet of white blossoms, apples, and citrus, and a tantalizing palate of crisp fruit flavors with a lingering citrus finish.
The Michel Niellon Chassagne-Montrachet Les Vergers is a delight to the senses, boasting a radiant golden lemon color that catches the eye. On the nose, it reveals a harmonious blend of white blossoms, apples, and citrus, elegantly intertwined with mineral notes. On the palate, this exceptional wine delivers excellent volume and fine mid-palate flavors of apples and pears, culminating in a long, citrus-imbued finish that lingers on the taste buds.
The versatile Michel Niellon Chassagne-Montrachet Les Vergers pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Its bright fruit flavors and vibrant acidity make it the perfect accompaniment to seafood, particularly grilled fish, lobster, and scallops. It also complements the rich creaminess of soft cheeses and the earthy flavors of roasted chicken or turkey.
Crafted from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Les Vergers vineyard's gravelly limestone and clay soil, this wine is meticulously vinified and aged for eight to nine months in 20-30% new oak barrels. With a potential aging of 3-7 years, the Michel Niellon Chassagne-Montrachet Les Vergers is a wine that promises to evolve and deepen with time, offering a truly exceptional wine experience for connoisseurs and novices alike.
Here too there is a smoky whiff suffusing the more citrus-infused aromas of white fleshed fruit that display a floral top note. The rich and very generously proportioned middle weight flavors also possess first-rate density and volume while offering solid length on the clean finale that is supported by a moderately firm lemon-tinged acid spine.
