Complex, subtle nose combines lime, smoke, minerals, nuts and earth. A distinct step up in texture and concentration from the premier crus; fresh, nicely delineated and solidly structured. Classy and light on its feet. Finishes subtle and long, and not at all austere for a '99.Inc. GSTSG$1,711.19 -

From five and half barrels, the 2013 Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru has a clinical nose with wonderful delineation. It is teasingly aloof at first, distant with faint oyster shell and brine notes, but glimpses only. Then it opens the door ajar with limestone and dewy green apple scents. The palate is extremely well balanced with clearly much higher level of tension than the Premier Crus from Niellon. But it is strict and very linear, long but without the peacock’s tail that will develop with time in bottle. There is almost a Riesling-like poise here, a Chevalier to cellar away while you enjoy the more open Bâtard-Montrachet. Excellent.Inc. GSTSG$4,806.25 -

Vinous (93+)
Very pale, green-tinged yellow. Very fresh if slightly reduced aromas of pear, flint, white flowers and talc. Then dense, sappy and alive in the mouth, showing penetrating lemony cut to the flavors of pear, mint and minerals. This uncompromisingly dry wine finishes vibrant and juicy, with terrific grip. This wine actually struck me as a bit exotic from barrel last year, but it's far more classic in its finished form.Inc. GSTSG$5,978.00 -

Chevalier-Montrachet 2023 from Domaine Michel Niellon is among the luminous successes of the vintage. The initial restraint on the nose gives way on the palate to aromas of ripe pear and quince with a hint of marzipan and fresh white flowers. The texture is generous, almost voluptuous, but there is a balance and elegance that hint at its noble origins. The grapes are from 0.22ha of 60-year-old vines at the base of the slope near the Leflaive parcel. Ideally, one would wait 10 years for this wine to show its full potential.Inc. GSTSG$4,761.62 -
