The 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Macherelles offers up a lovely bouquet of crisp green apple, waxy citrus rind and white flowers. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a riper, fleshier and somewhat more open-knit profile than the Chassagne Chaumées, though with similarly tangy acids and a saline, mineral finish. This will be one of the more accessible of Lamy's 2017s.
Fine clear primrose, the nose shows a little fruit but it is quite tight, the palate even more so, the energy is there but it is on the tight side. Somehow it comes across as a little bit anonymous after tasting the top St-Aubin 1ers Crus.
