Descriptions: Roger Belland – Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Pitois Blanc 75cl is an elegant, expressive Premier Cru white Burgundy made from beautifully ripe Chardonnay. It offers vibrant aromas of citrus zest, white peach, and orchard fruits, layered with delicate floral notes, subtle honeyed richness, and refined toasty accents from oak ageing.
