The Story

Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles is located to the south of the Côte de Beaune, at the summit of the slope where the villages of Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet converge, but on the Puligny commune, just above Le Montrachet.

Written Notes

This is restrained to the point of being all but mute and it requires aggressive swirling to liberate the airy and cool yet clearly ripe aromas of various white flowers, citrus and spice elements. There is once again excellent volume and concentration as well as markedly more minerality if somewhat less powerful broad-shouldered flavors that possess fine mid-palate density, all wrapped in a gorgeously long, complex and strikingly harmonious finish.

Barrel Sample: 93-96
