Jean-Claude Bachelet Les Encégnières Chassagne Montrachet 2018 napa valley Chardonnay California Sonoma CoastThe basic Chassagne bottling is made entirely from 50 year old vines in the lieu dit Les Encgnires, which is shared by both Chassagne and Puligny. Though it is a large vineyard, only a tiny piece of Les Encgnires extends into Chassagne, just below the famous Btard Montrachet.
