Les Heritiers Saint Genys Chassagne Montrachet Clos St Jean Blanc 1er Cru 2021 [JS 95]

James Suckling 95 points.

"Attractive notes of hazelnuts, pie crust, baked apples, sweet chestnuts and lime curd. Generous and ripe, yet graceful, with a full body and long, creamy finish, with fantastic tension and persistency. Better from 2024."

Le Clos Saint-Jean, in Chassagne-Montrachet, takes its name from the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Jean le Grand d'Autun which once owned it.
