Description
Chassagne-Montrachet “Chanvennes” 1998 – White Wine (Maison Pierre André)
The 1998 Chassagne-Montrachet “Chanvennes” from Maison Pierre André is a fine mature expression of a renowned Chardonnay terroir in the Côte de Beaune. The structured and concentrated 1998 vintage produced white wines with real ageing potential. Now beautifully evolved, this Chassagne-Montrachet delivers a harmonious profile combining richness, complexity and elegance.
The colour shows a deep golden hue with subtle amber highlights, reflecting graceful ageing. The nose is rich and layered, offering ripe yellow fruits — pear and baked apple — alongside hints of light honey and almond, followed by notes of fresh butter, toasted hazelnut and brioche. Mineral and gently smoky nuances add depth and precision.
On the palate, the wine is broad, structured and seamlessly integrated. The texture is generous yet well balanced by a still-lively acidity that lifts the natural richness of the vintage. Flavours of ripe fruit, dried fruits, buttery notes and warm stone unfold harmoniously. The finish is long and persistent, lingering with toasted and mineral tones, leaving an impression of calm maturity and refinement.
A beautifully mature Burgundian Chardonnay — rich yet balanced, complex and elegant — ideal for lovers of evolved white wines seeking depth, harmony and emotion.
