Its impressive power, ample structure, and vibrant freshness suggest that the ageing will harmonise beautifully over time.

The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Founded in 1750, Chanson has been cultivating excellence for nearly three centuries, ensuring a timeless classic style that competes with the best, producing precise and pure wines, both white and red.

Awarded 1 star by the Guide RVF, the estate consistently achieves a high level of quality, supported by the rigor and resources of the Bollinger Group, which has managed it for the past 25 years.

With a heritage of excellence, meticulous vinifications, expertly controlled aging, Chanson's success is no accident. The arrival of Vincent Avenel further enhances the clarity of expression across the estate's wide range of wines.
Wine Adorned with luxurious oak notes and beautiful floral undertones, the 2022 white Chassagne-Montrachet is a wine with great potential, best kept in the cellar for a bit longer. Its current oak influence blends with significant power, impressive volume, and refreshing acidity, promising a harmonious integration of its noble aging. This bottle will benefit from an additional one year in the cellar to reach its full potential.
Vinification Hand harvested from August 30 to September 13, 2022. 3 plots selected from Chassagne-Montrachet winemakers, located in the heart of the Village, bordering the Premiers Crus and ideally facing South-East and South-West. Aged in oak barrels.
