Note di degustazione
Cooler aromas of Granny Smith apple, crushed stone and menthol; hints at an almost medicinal austerity. Then broad and dry, even a bit strict. Showing less flavor today than the superb Batard, but this is extremely backward. A strong wet stone character gives the long finish a faint hard edge.

The 2003 Chevalier-Montrachet (white) bursts from the glass with complex aromas of buttered minerals, limestone, and oak. Boasting an extremely well-balanced, feminine, and impressively persistent personality, it reveals butter-drenched toast as well as minerals in its liquid satin-like character. This plush effort has terrific underlying focus, grace, and style. Projected maturity: now-2014. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083
Vibrant aromas of apple, minerals and spring flowers. Wonderfully precise and pure in the mouth, with flavors similar to the aromas. An amazingly solid, tactile wine with near-crystalline purity and terrific inner-mouth vibrancy. Builds impressively and goes on and on in the mouth. A knockout, and particularly impressive for the vintage. This will probably need to be cellared for at least five or six years.
