Au Pied du Mont Chauve En Pimont Chassagne-Montrachet 2019

Broader and riper in profile than the 2018 bottling of En Pimont, this full-bodied Chardonnay highlights flavors of preserved apricot and almond nougat accented by mesquite and crushed white pepper. Luscious in texture yet brightened by pert lemony acidity, the powerful wine is ready to drink now but should hold well through 2029. Score – 92. (Anna Lee C. Iijima, Wine Enthusiast, Dec. 1, 2021)
