Domaine Roux Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chaumes 2020 is an elegant white Burgundy produced from Chardonnay in the celebrated Côte de Beaune village of Chassagne-Montrachet.

The nose is refined and expressive, offering aromas of ripe pear, yellow apple, lemon zest, white flowers, and subtle toasted hazelnut. With time in the glass, delicate notes of fresh pastry, spice, and mineral complexity begin to emerge.
On the palate, the wine combines generous texture with bright, well-integrated acidity. Flavors of orchard fruit, citrus, and stone fruit are complemented by restrained oak and a gentle creamy richness. The finish is long, polished, and mineral-driven, balancing the depth associated with Chassagne-Montrachet with freshness and precision.
This sophisticated white Burgundy is an excellent partner for lobster, scallops, roasted or grilled fish, poultry in cream sauce, mushroom dishes, and aged cheeses. Its impressive 1.5-liter magnum format is ideal for special occasions, entertaining, or further development in the cellar.
