Note di degustazione
The 2019 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru is noticeably deeper in color than its peers. The nose shows evidence of some over-maturity—honeysuckle and stewed peaches—and is missing a little delineation. The palate is unctuous on the entry and very concentrated, with layered honeyed fruit and lower acidity than its peers. It is, however, pure and caressing on the finish. This is a Chevalier-Montrachet that aims for broad appeal, but others possess a little more elan. Maybe picked a day too late? Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2019 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru comes from a 0.151-hectare parcel of vines. It has the best tension and terroir expression of Vougeraie’s white Grand Crus, featuring gunflint-tinged green apples. The palate is well balanced with quite a powerful, intense opening. Honeyed in texture, displaying notes of lemon curd and mango, it leans to the tropical side of things toward a finish that just denudes it of some of the tension promised by the aromatics.
