Note di degustazione
The 2013 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru shows its class on the nose: more mineral-driven than the Bâtard-Montrachet, with touches of chalk and limestone accompanying the citrus fruit. The palate is harmonious on the entry with veins of orange rind and citrus peel right from start, gradually building in the mouth toward a confident finish. This is one of the best 2013s from Henri Boillot and on this showing, shoulder to shoulder with the Montrachet.

Bright yellow. Knockout pristine nose combines lemon, orange and tangy minerality. Like liquid silk on the palate but with a crystalline quality and outstanding verve to the flavors of lemon custard, orange and minerals. Full yet weightless wine. The dusty, rising finish shows outstanding energy and lift but no austerity, with lemon and crushed stone flavors leaving the mouth vibrating. Boillot calls Chevalier-Montrachet "the greatest white wine terroir." A stunning result for the year.
