Bader-Mimeur, Chassagne Montrachet Château de Chassagne Montrachet 2024 White

Bader-Mimeur’s Chassagne-Montrachet Château de Chassagne-Montrachet 2024 comes from one of Burgundy’s most celebrated white-wine villages, situated at the foot of the renowned Montrachet vineyards. Produced by a family with roots in Chassagne-Montrachet stretching back centuries, it combines the distinction of its appellation with a careful, traditional approach to élevage in French oak.

Tasting Notes
The 2024 vintage is expected to show a bright, pale-gold appearance, with the freshness and understated richness associated with Chassagne-Montrachet. On the nose, look for refined aromas of citrus, white flowers, orchard fruit and subtle mineral notes, complemented by gentle nuances from its time in oak rather than overt wood character. On the palate, the wine should offer a balanced combination of ripe fruit, fresh acidity and a smooth, textured finish. Fine lees ageing and regular bâtonnage contribute to its rounded mouthfeel, while the restrained use of oak helps preserve clarity and freshness. It can be enjoyed in its youth for its vibrant fruit and mineral character, but should develop greater complexity over the next several years when carefully stored.

Production
The estate lies at the foot of the Montrachet vineyards in Chassagne-Montrachet, an area valued for its limestone-rich soils and elegant, mineral-driven white wines. The grapes are gently pressed as whole bunches in a pneumatic press, after which the juice is cold-settled. Within 24 hours, it is transferred by gravity into French oak barrels, where the entire alcoholic fermentation takes place. The wine then matures for 10 months in French oak without the use of new barrels, with regular bâtonnage of the fine lees to build texture and depth.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled at approximately 10–12°C. This Chassagne-Montrachet is a natural match for roast chicken, poultry in a creamy sauce, grilled or roasted fish, shellfish, lobster and delicate vegetable dishes. It can also complement soft, lightly aged cheeses. Decanting is not essential, but a short 15–30 minute opening in the glass or a gentle decant can help reveal its aromas, particularly when enjoyed young.

Producer
Bader-Mimeur is a historic family estate based at Château de Chassagne-Montrachet. The Bader-Nié family owned vineyards in Chassagne-Montrachet and the surrounding area as early as the 17th century, while Charles Mimeur, a winegrower from the Maranges area, acquired the château in 1919. The property has remained in family hands for five generations and, since 2017, has been managed by siblings Sébastien Fossier and Nathalie Bernard, who continue the estate’s long connection with this prestigious Burgundy appellation.
