90-92 The 2012 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Grandes Ruchottes is a tad more reticent than the Les Caillerets but it opens nicely with lime flower and fresh pear scents. The palate is nicely balanced with a fine citric core of fruit, touches of dried apricot and quince; then eases down toward a refined, quite feminine finish.
