Jean-Claude Bachelet, Chassagne Montrachet Boudriotte Blanc other_regions_australia There is good punch to(from 60+ year old vines in Les Chaumes). Discreet wood frames the ripe aromas of rosemary oil, white peach and again a whiff of petrol character.

This wont win any awards for refinement but its really quite good.
