Note di degustazione
Pale lemon-yellow color. Pungent aromas of lemon zest and crushed stone. Voluminous on the attack, then densely packed and energetic in the mid-palate, showing salty minerality, sexy restrained sweetness and a more floral character than the Batard. More accessible on the back half than the Batard and not at all austere, with the savory finish mounting slowly and lingering well. This seamless, complete wine shows the class of the 2014 vintage.

There are two barrels, one new and one old, of the 2014 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru this year. Like the Bâtard, the nose is tight and reticent at the moment despite rigorous aeration. The palate is crisp and tensile on the entry, perhaps more nuanced than the Bâtard with very discrete white peach and nectarine notes. But it is the tension, the almost coruscating sense of energy here that bowls you over. With superb persistence in the mouth, this is another spellbinding wine from Alex Moreau.
