The Chassagne comprises six parcels, the most northerly of which is En Journoblot, which borders Criots-Bâtard. The core comes from three more centrally located vineyards: Voillenot Dessus and Les Chambres (under the 1er Cru Maltroie), and Les Masures (under the 1er Cru Champ Gains). The most southerly parcel is La Platière, which sits below the Abbaye de Morgeot climat. Altogether, these plots cover a surface of 1.4 hectares, making this Benoît’s most important wine. The sum of all these parts is a focused white Burgundy that again, bats well above its level. Barely 10% of this cuvee was raised in new oak.

Reviews

“Derived from six parcels dotted around the village, the 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc offers up aromas of pear, orange oil and white flowers, followed by a medium to full-bodied, bright and pure palate that's satiny and saline.”
89-90 points, William Kelley, Wine Advocate
“Six plots, racked to tank in August. Pale to mid lemon yellow. A light reductive character, excellent tension, a useful bitterness, which will keep this on the right track for longer. Then the classy saline fruit returns. Drink from 2026-2029.”
88-90 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
