Note di degustazione
The 2019 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru unequivocally possesses one of the most dramatic, powerful bouquets amongst the flight, with intense citrus fruit, grapefruit, crushed stone and white linen scents. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip that belies the mammoth structure of this Grand Cru, yet there is a paradoxical weightlessness that carries this wine beautifully. Long and tender on the finish, this is another seriously fine Chevalier-Montrachet deserving of long-term cellaring. Spellbinding. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Leflaive's 2019 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru unwinds in the glass with scents of Anjou pear, orange oil, clear honey, white flowers and freshly baked bread, framed by a deft touch of youthful reduction. Full-bodied, concentrated and incisive, it's textural but taut, its satiny attack segueing into a deep, chiseled mid-palate, concluding with a long, electric finish. This is a brilliant Chevalier with a long life ahead of it.
The 2019 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru needed a little encouragement from the glass. Eventually it reveals captivating scents of honeysuckle, petrichor and pressed yellow flowers, an underlying spiciness that comes through with aeration. The palate has a beguiling symmetry from the start: a killer line of acidity counterbalancing the intensity of this Chevalier, gentle grip towards the spicy and "flowing" finish. Everything you could really want in a Chevalier-Montrachet Closure: Diam 30
