Domaine Ramonet Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Boudriotte Rouge 2021
Chassagne-Montrachet made its name in red. For centuries the village grew far more Pinot Noir than Chardonnay, and it was the global thirst for white Burgundy, not any failure of the reds, that flipped the ratio. Ramonet never abandoned them, and La Boudriotte, at the southern end of the appellation up against Morgeot, is the site that best explains why. This is 2021, a cold, frost-thinned year that produced almost nothing but rewarded growers who kept their nerve: light on its feet, structured, savory rather than sweet. It wants cellar time and will pay it back. A serious red from the most famous white-wine address in the world, which is exactly the kind of contradiction worth chasing.
