Note di degustazione
The 2001 Chevalier-Montrachet reveals a floral, mineral-scented nose and a light to medium-bodied, complex character filled with citrus fruits, gravel, and stones. A flavorful, refined wine, it is undeniably outstanding, yet lacks the depth, flesh, and length for a more exalted review. Lace-like, it impresses with its panoply of detailed flavors, not by power. Drink it over the next 8 years. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel.

Knockout perfumed aromas of cool, wet stone, nut oils and charred oak. Hugely ripe and impressively intense, with terrific penetrating minerality giving dimension to the wine sheer density of material. Chewy in the mouth and on the penetrating, very long aftertaste but not phenolic or harsh. Should make a great and ageworthy bottle.
