Rather ample palate

The 2020 La Vizcaína La Vitoriana matured mostly in a troncoconic oak foudre and had a very short time in barrel

lingering finish on the palate

bush-farmed vines and with no wood contact

with buried brambly grip providing the support for the dense fruit and toast to meld

2022 | Chateau de la Maltroye Clos Saint Jean Rouge | Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Breaking Ground Rather ample palateAn equally ripe yet slightly fresher nose blends notes of spice, pepper and earth with those of red currant, plum and a very subtle suggestion of wood. There is even better verve to the seductively textured, if not especially dense, medium bodied flavors that possess evident minerality, all wrapped in sappy, lingering, dusty and youthfully austere finish that is the most structured in the range. Excellent with fine development potential. 92 Pts
