Product Description
RP 94 "The 2016 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Ruchottes is superb, wafting from the glass with aromas of Anjou pear, iodine, tangerine oil and wet stones, subtly framed by a delicate touch of new wood. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with excellent concentration, incisive acids and a long, precise finish. This is more old-fashioned than the 2014 rendition, and if that wine resembles the domaine's 2010, this has more affinities with the 2008. (WK)" (January 2019)
"Pierre Ramonet arrived in Burgundy in the late 1920s. The crown jewel of his acquisitions would occur in 1978 when he purchased a plot of Montrachet. His grandchildren, who are the current owners, Noël and Jean-Claude have tended the vineyards since 1984. They produce 24 appellation wines from 16.2 ha, located primarily in Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet. With the 2014 vintages, the name changed from Domaine Ramonet to Domaine Jean-Claude Ramonet as Noël chose to lease his vineyards to his brother." AM for BH Jun 2022
