Domaine Jean Claude Ramonet - Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru La Boudriotte Red 2022
The Domaine Jean-Claude Ramonet is among the absolute references of Chassagne-Montrachet, in the Côte de Beaune, recognized for the rigor of its work and the remarkable longevity of its wines. An emblematic family estate, it is now run by Noël and Jean-Claude Ramonet, who perpetuate a know-how passed down through several generations. The vineyard consists of plots carefully located on the best slopes of the appellation, resting on complex clay-limestone soils, conducive to the fine expression of Pinot Noir. Yields are precisely controlled, and the harvests are carried out at perfect maturity to preserve balance and freshness. The work in the vineyard is carried out in a reasonable manner, with great attention paid to soil health and the identity of the climates. In the cellar, vinifications favor accuracy, finesse of extraction, and the overall harmony of the wine.
The Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Boudriotte Red 2022 is made exclusively from Pinot Noir, from the La Boudriotte climate, reputed for producing elegant and structured reds, often deeper than the average of the appellation. Located on the eastern part of Chassagne-Montrachet, this Premier Cru benefits from a terroir that combines aromatic finesse, flesh, and mineral tension. The 2022 vintage, sunny but perfectly controlled, offers here a generous expression of fruit without excess, supported by a beautiful natural freshness. The vinification is conducted gently to preserve the delicacy of the grape variety, while the aging, measured and precise, accompanies the wine without masking its identity. This cuvée embodies a noble and refined interpretation of the great reds of Chassagne-Montrachet. It perfectly illustrates the often underestimated potential of the Premier Cru reds of the appellation.
On tasting, the wine reveals a complex nose blending ripe red fruits, black cherry, raspberry, and subtle floral notes, enhanced by a discreet spicy touch. The palate is elegant and structured, supported by fine and silky tannins that give the wine great harmony. The body is balanced, with beautiful depth without heaviness, supported by a mineral framework that brings relief and length. The finish is persistent, precise, and refined, a signature of the great terroirs of Chassagne-Montrachet. This Premier Cru red will ideally accompany roasted poultry, delicate meats, or elegant gastronomic cuisine. It has an excellent aging potential, capable of evolving gracefully over several years.
