Goedhuis, December 2022
This extraordinary Premier Cru parcel is the envy of all the growers in the village: a unique plot of vines just below the great Le Montrachet! Rich lemon-yellow colour, Bastien has taken this out of cask and put it into cuve ahead of his other Premiers Crus, as he wants to preserve the exuberant exotic fruits: fresh peach, melon and roasted cashew. Deep, full and agile on the finish. Outstanding.

Jasper Morris MW, December 2022, Score: 92-94
Paler in colour, as was the village Blanchots. More saline than Fairendes, a little more tensile strength than the village Blanchots, with a more mineral and longer finish. Still young, a minor bitterness, but with potential for medium term ageing. Drink from 2026-2031.

The Coffinet family are very much part of Chassagne Montrachet’s wine aristocracy, having owned vineyards in the village since the mid-1800s. As with many Burgundian families, there are many offshoots, the result of generations of intermarriage with other famous local names.

As with many Burgundian families, there are many offshoots, the result of generations of intermarriage with other famous local names. Our latest new discovery stems from Fernand Coffinet, whose daughter Laura met Philippe Duvernay from Rully, to create the exciting under-the-radar estate of Domaine Coffinet-Duvernay. Their 7 hectares of vines are split between village, eight different Premiers Crus and a gem of a parcel of Grand Cru.Read less

Region
Chassagne Montrachet
The white wines of Chassagne Montrachet can be difficult to distinguish from Puligny. At their most typical they are slightly fleshier and more hedonistic, but are often just as mineral and refined making the two almost inseparable. When distinguishable, they offer notes of honeysuckle, lime blossom and honey. Many have become quite approachable when young. It is larger than Puligny with vineyards totalling over 330 hectares. Though it shares both the grand cru vineyards of Le Montrachet and Bâtard Montrachet, it has sole ownership of the miniscule Criots Bâtard Montrachet. Similar to Puligny, Chassagne also grows Pinot Noir, which can be austere when young. A small amount of red Chassagne is also made.
