Wine Critic Reviews
Aromas of yellow apple, green pear, Meyer lemon, toasted nuts and honeycomb introduce the 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Ruchottes, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural wine that's rich and fleshy, with succulent acids but without the tension of this year's Caillerets.

(Ramonet is aging this wine and his Clos du Cailleret in 30% new oak, but uses 25% for the rest of his premier crus – and 50% for the grand crus): Bright, light yellow. Distinctly more yellow on the nose than the Morgeot, with its peach and toasty oak aromas lifted by a floral note. Fat, broad and rich but with lovely balancing acidity giving energy and force to the middle palate. Attractive balance here, and very long on the aftertaste.
