Wine Spectator
A medium-weight white, featuring lime, wet stone,
peach and spice flavors on an elegant frame. This is harmonious,
and the spice notes expand on the lingering aftertaste, along with
toast and citrus.
Best from '10 through '16.

David Schildknecht - Wine Advocate
From a monopole of the Magenta estate (acquired by
Jadot in the early '80s) the 2006 Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeots
Clos de la Chapelle Duc de Magneta offers a refined bouquet of apple
blossom, gardenia, peach, hazelnut, and lemon. Creamy and refined
on the palate, it perpetuates its ethereal, delicate, gentle themes
in a ravishingly long finish. This offers a striking contrast to
the “regular” Morgeot, and the two should be fascinating
to follow in tandem over the next 3-5 years. A few barrels of Clos
de la Chapelle had not even finished their alcoholic fermentation
at the end of '07. |
