FOOD MATCHING NOTE:

With balance, aromatic complexity, and purified style demand delicate but rich food. They are equally at home with poultry in sauce or veal fried with mushrooms. Their great distinction elicits a grateful response from fattened goose liver (foie gras), lobster, crawfish, and grilled or fried sea-fish. On the cheese-board, its natural allies are goat cheeses, Reblochon, or soft-centred cheeses like Brie de Meaux

TASTING NOTE:

A typical perfumed nose of a Chassagne, there is quite a bit of oak too, but not on the palate. It is sweet like candy, a lollipop, round and racy peaches in syrup; juicy fruit gum, butter and sugar corn, a lemon/lime fruit finish.
