Description

Chevalier Montrachet 2002
Domaine Leflaive
Bottle (1)

Wonderful selection of wines from the cellar of one of Europe’s most knowledgeable wine collectors. Immaculate provenance: ALL wines purchased upon original European release through meticulous natural distribution channels and stored in a purpose-built temperature and humidity-controlled cellar.

"A supremely elegant nose of white flower and limestone notes are followed by sweet, pungently mineral and ultra precise middle weight flavors that offer simply incredible focus with an almost painfully intense, stunningly long finish. This has just now arrived on the front edge of its peak drinkability though some may prefer a few more years in the cellar first. In sum, this is really lovely juice that should age gracefully for several decades." (94 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, May 2010)

"A fully mature and supremely elegant nose features notes of white flower, spice, citrus confit and the barest hint of wood. The naturally sweet, pungently mineral and rich yet precise middle weight flavors offer excellent focus on the stunningly long finish. This is in the middle of its peak drinkability though it should continue to age gracefully for at least another decade. Note that I have experienced some premox with this wine though when it's "on", it's gorgeous. Another recent bottle seemed tired though it could well have been the storage. In sum, this can be an excellent wine but it's impossible to predict how it will show." (94 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, July 2023)
