Benjamin Leroux Chassagne-Montrachet 1er cru Tete de Clos 2017

Outstanding! 90-93 Points - Allen Meadows, Burghound

'Soft wood frames the ultra-floral-suffused nose of pear liqueur, petrol and white and yellow orchard fruit. The impressively-scaled and lavishly rich big-bodied flavors possess evident muscle and power that really comes up on the bone dry and citrus-tinged finish that is so tightly coiled as to be somewhat strict.

Not surprisingly the mouth feel of the medium weight is notably finer and markedly more mineral-driven as well on the clean, agreeably dry, clean and lingering finale. This is at once racy and refined and should age well." Outstanding 90-93 Points - Allen Meadows, Burghound Issue 71
