Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets Guy Amiot & Fils 2006

The Amiot family has been making wine in Chassagne-Montrachet since the 1920s. For four generations, each has passed down its passion for winemaking together with its vines, firmly rooted in the terroir of Chassagne-Montrachet. The vines are farmed according to traditional methods and naturally produce modest yields, but always of outstanding quality. In the winery, the same attention to detail guides both vinification and ageing, resulting in wines that combine generosity, finesse and excellent ageing potential.

In clay-chalk soil and on a hillside, the vine has to reach the depths of the earth in order to draw its energy, producing little but fantastic quality. Treated sustainably, it is able to express all of its power, proffering the complexity of the terroir to the grapes. To enjoy in 5-8 years’ time.
