Les Chaumes also sits high on the slope near the forest line, and above 1er Cru Perrières. The vineyard lies at southern end of the village towards Blagny. Spoils are thin and rocky over limestone. Chaumes, to me, is the opulent one of the bunch. Nots of stone fruit pushing to pineapple. There is a note of springtime blossoms too. On the palate there is some viscosity the runs across your tongue, with a finish that exudes a citrusy acidity.
