Mid lemon and lime. More white fruit on the nose, a greater sense of class, not just more open. This is remarkably stylish, a fully worthy Chevalier, the fruit floating on top of the bone structure. Very well done. 7 barrels made
Consistently among my favourite Chevaliers, the Clos des Chevaliers from Jean Chartron does not disappoint, with pronounced aromas of greengage plum, lemon peel and nectarine, a stony mineral foundation and accents of acacia flowers and spice. On the palate, the wine shows exceptional concentration and depth of flavour, with a lively, dynamic feel; it is superb in every regard. The half-hectare of vines at the northern end of the historical section of Chevalier is among the greatest sites for white wine in Burgundy. (Drink between 2035-2070)
