Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru En Virondot 2010

Provenance

The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.

For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.

Critics Ratings

"Lots of energy and tight richness. Good stuff!" - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Jan 2012)

"Very mild reduction reduces slightly the expressiveness of the white flower, lemon rind and wet stone suffused nose. There is wonderful transparency to the cool, rich and palate coating flavors that conclude in a mineral-inflected, dry, clean and gorgeously intense finish that combines both outstanding length with superb complexity. This is the finest example that I have ever seen and is well worth your consideration." - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 93/100 (Jun 2012)
