Chateau De Lachassagne Clos Du Chateau Monopole Bourgogne Pinot Noir 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) Concentrated blueberry nose with hints of black, mineral earth. Palate is warm and relatively plush, making this an excellent stepping stone from new world to old, but shot through with a firm line of sappy tannins from 30% whole bunch. Distinctively pretty caramel finish due to use of Spanish oak! Same barrels as those used for Rioja matches the whole bunch element better according to the winemaker.
