2023 Chassagne-Montrachet – Ropiteau Frères

2023 Chassagne-Montrachet from Ropiteau Frères is an elegant and exclusive white Burgundy made from 100% Chardonnay. The wine unites the region's characteristic minerality with notes of citrus, white peaches, ripe pears, and lightly toasted hazelnuts. A classic Chassagne-Montrachet with great finesse, complexity, and a long, harmonious finish.

About the product

Since 1848, Ropiteau Frères has been among Burgundy's most respected négociant houses and is known for selecting grapes from some of the region's best vineyards. This Chassagne-Montrachet is made exclusively from Chardonnay, where the natural freshness of the grapes and the minerality of the terroir are at the center.

After gentle pressing, the wine is fermented at a controlled temperature, after which a portion of the wine is aged in French oak barrels. The partial barrel aging imparts elegant notes of vanilla, butter, and toasted nuts without overpowering the pure fruit. The result is a harmonious and complex white wine with a beautiful balance between freshness, fullness, and finesse.

About the region

Chassagne-Montrachet is located in Côte de Beaune in Burgundy and is considered one of the world's most prestigious areas for Chardonnay. Calcareous soils and a cool climate produce wines with great minerality, elegant acidity, and an impressive ability to develop with age. The region is home to some of the world's most sought-after white wines and is synonymous with refinement and terroir.

Taste

Nose: Elegant aromas of citrus, white flowers, ripe pears, white peaches, toasted hazelnuts, butter, and a hint of vanilla.

Palate: Full-bodied and refined with fresh citrus, stone fruit, ripe pear, and a lovely mineral character. The subtle barrel aging imparts a creamy texture and elegant notes of butter and toasted nuts.

Finish: Long, fresh, and complex with persistent minerality, ripe fruit, and fine oak notes.

Serving

Best served at 10–12 °C in a large white wine glass. It is recommended to open the wine 20-30 minutes before serving, allowing the aromas to develop. Can be enjoyed young, but will also develop greater complexity after a few years of cellaring.
