Sadly, one of the most sour Chassagne rouge wines I’ve ever tasted... and this, from the stellar and ripe 2015 vintage. Something may have gone wrong during production with this effort. The typically lighter body is there but the fruit is missing compared to other producers. No need to buy this one unless you’re looking for austerity. Sadly this was no better on day 2 or day 3, so aging may not improve this wine. Not everyone in our group thought this wine was lacking.
