Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Pretty and perfumed, the 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Boudriotte bursts with notes of white flowers, pear and peach. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, lively and elegant, with succulent acids and a nicely defined finish.
Vinous
The 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet La Boudriotte 1er Cru comes from a single parcel on chalky soils. It has a clean, precise bouquet with more mineralité compared to other crus from the domaine, the terroir coming through nicely. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity and gentle grip. A little honeyed toward the finish, with touches of melon and praline on the aftertaste.
Decanter
The Fontaines' parcel is comparatively large at 0.8ha is planted on a mixture of different soil types. Fermented and aged in 33 new wood, it has aromas of iodine and oyster shell, plenty of weight and mid-palate texture, focused acidity and a dusting of nutmeg and vanilla spice. Energetic and refreshing, with real vibrancy and length.
