2024, Domaine Darviot-Perrin, CHASSAGNE-MONTRACHET, 1er Cru, 'Les Bondues'
$132
“Les Bondues” is a small, prestigious, eastern-facing Premier Cru vineyard located 100 yards south of Montrachet. Bondues is a lieu-dit within Chenevottes. The Darviots are the only vignerons to have Pinot Noir in this particular vineyard.
Ancient vines. A rich glowing purple. There is a nutty note to the nose which I often find in red Chassagne. Slightly peppery at the back even though no whole bunches. Quite lively to finish, with more red fruit than black. Tasted Oct 2025.
