The wines are huge

rich and well-detailed flavors exude evident minerality that carries over to the balanced if compact

classically austere Barolo that will especially delight readers with traditionally leaning palates

supple and round middle weight flavors are surprisingly forward compared to how this wine is typically structured

a wine that ultimately is produced only about once every four years or so

Jean-Marc Blain-Gagnard, Chassagne Montrachet Caillerets Size:12x750ml The wines are huge(from Vigne Derrire). Notes of petrol, citrus, pear and a whiff of tangerine peel combine to serve as a pretty introduction to the round, delicious and relatively forward flavors that possess a succulent mouthfeel where the richness is offset by an agreeably dry and persistent saline inflected finish. This isnt a classic example of a steely Caillerets but rather one that should drink well young and repay a few years of cellaring too.
