Chateau De Lachassagne Clos Du Chateau Monopole Bourgogne Chardonnay 2019
Château de Lachassagne
Château de Lachassagne is an exceptional place, located in the very south of Burgundy, with a unique view over the Saône Valley. It is a 62-hectare property, totally surrounded by a small stone wall, which classifies it as a "Clos" or a single site.
Winemaker, Vigneron and owner Olivier Bosse-Platière is from the village of Lucenay, 3km from the Chateau of Lachassagne, where his parents have a vineyard. After completing an oenology degree in Burgundy, he worked in various great vineyards all around the world through additional training with the OIV (International Organisation of Vines and Wines). He always kept in mind the idea of moving back to Burgundy one day. Finally, the opportunity occurred when the gorgeous Chateau came up for sale, and, with his wife Veronique, he took the vineyard of Lachassagne. Olivier and Veronique make Burgundy with a modern, global eye. They are guided by tradition, but not chained to it. French oak is common, but so is Spanish oak from Rioja. Whole bunch is a factor, but never dominates the reds.

(2018 vintage) Very attractive nose of cream and butter (from 10 months in 30% new French oak), then nectarine and white peach. Lovely creamy, stonefruit palate with taut citric acidity and a touch of pithy bitterness on the finish from some lees stirring. Great entry tier wine, and a perfect introduction to the region.
