Domaine Darviot-Perrin Chassagne Montrachet Rouge 1er Cru les Bondues 2017
A finely poised Chassagne‑Montrachet Premier Cru that marries the region’s clarity with a caressing depth of red berry. The wine exudes seductive cherry and raspberry aromas layered with an undercurrent of gentle woodland spice, all built around a silken frame of balanced structure and heritage. The texture is fleshy without heaviness, refined yet expressive of its limestone‑rich Chenevottes origin.

Domaine Darviot-Perrin Chassagne Montrachet Rouge Premier Cru Les Bondues | Fine Vines
Location: “Les Bondues” is a small, prestigious, eastern-facing Premier Cru vineyard located just south of Chassagne-Montrachet, 100 yards south of Montrachet. Bondues is a lieu-dit within Chenvottes. The Darviots are the only vignerons to have Pinot Noir in this particular vineyard.
Tasting Notes: Almost garnet in color with a deep rim. The bouquet is full of deep, brooding red fruit with polished wood notes. This is a robust and meaty full-bodied wine.
