Wafting from the glass with a reserved bouquet of crisp yellow orchard fruit, crushed chalk and dried white flowers, the 2016 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Caillerets is medium to full-bodied, pure and glossy, with an ample, voluminous attack, good concentration and an unmistakably mineral, chalky undercurrent that dominates the tongue-tingling finish. It's a bit more open-knit than the most tensile, incisive vintages of Colin's Caillerets, but it's a definite success in the vintage.

The 2016 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Cailleret from Domaine Marc Colin is burnished gold in color. It has an intense bouquet, a little richer than I expect, with ample Golden Delicious, brioche, chamomile and yellow flower scents, though perhaps not quite delivering the mineralité that I expect from this limestone-dominated vineyard. That is true of the palate too, although it has fantastic weight and girth, delivering layers of citrus fruit, custard creams and shaved almond – dare I say, almost like a very fine Chardonnay from Sonoma! Gorgeous, but not as cerebral as some of Damien Colin’s other 2016s.
