Jean-Marc Blain-Gagnard, Chassagne Montrachet Brut Zero a gently grainy frame and(from a mix of ~30% young vine 1ers and villages fruit). An expressive nose of petrol, rosemary oil and apple leads to rich, round and caressing flavors that are not particularly dense though I like both the depth and length on the clean, dry and balanced finale. This could be enjoyed young or with 5 ish years of keeping.
