Domaine Leflaive, Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru 2001

"The 2001 Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru from Domaine Leflaive was sublime. There’s always a bit of trepidation in opening an older bottle of white Burgundy these days, but the 2001 is in perfect shape for a wine of its age, showing plenty of grace in its airy, lifted personality." - Antonio Galloni

"There is still a subtle oak influence to the floral, mineral-suffused and mildly tropical fruit aromas that evidence a pronounced chalk and stone quality. There is fine density to the markedly rich, delineated, powerful and focused middle weight flavors that deliver outstanding complexity on the stunningly long backend, all the while displaying dazzling purity. This is an absolutely gorgeous wine." - Allen Meadows
