2014 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru La Vougeraie

Arômes riches, purs et complexes de fruits jaunes bien mûrs, d'épices, d'agrumes... En bouche, la trame minérale fine du terroir est bien enrobée par le fruit, le tout avec beaucoup d'élégance, de classe et une superbe longueur.

A background note of wood easily allows the cool, pure and ripe aromas of essence of apple, white flowers, wet stone and jasmine tea to shine. The almost painfully intense and chiseled broad-shouldered flavors reflect the hallmark minerality of a fine Chevalier before culminating in an explosively long and impeccably well- balanced finale. This classy effort is pretty though it doesn't have the complexity that I'm used to seeing even at this early juncture though in fairness, it may develop it with a few years of bottle age.
