Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (87)Pale lemon colour. There is still a certain reserve here, but the quality of the terroir is starting to show nonetheless. Picked on the first day which may explain the more reserved style. The palate is significantly more full throttle, with a pleasing generosity, backed by adequate acidity. A fine long finish.

Serene on the palate with waves of ripe apple fruit, then some stones to finish, almost a pyrazine note. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted Oct 2024. |

Wine Advocate (93)Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Chevalier-Montrachet Clos de Chevalier Grand Cru has a slightly muffled bouquet compared to its peers, needing to muster more precision and mineral expression. The palate is fresh on the entry with a smooth and lightly honeyed texture, vanilla and white chocolate notes from the new oak, perhaps a little too generous for a wine of this standing yet undeniably quite delicious. Tasted May 2016. |

Vinous (95-97)The 2018 Chevalier-Montrachet Clos de Chevaliers Grand Cru has a wonderful, engaging bouquet with yellow flowers, jasmine and flinty aromas; subtle praline aromas surface with aeration. You could nose this all day! The well-balanced palate displays fine poise and focus, offering veins of white peach intermixed with white chocolate and almond before the citrus core takes hold of the steering wheel on the finish. This is a multifaceted Chevalier-Montrachet that should give many years of drinking pleasure. Six barrels produced. |

Vinous (94-96)The 2020 Chevalier-Montrachet Clos de Chevaliers Grand Cru totals 6 barrels this year. Wonderful mineralité on the nose here: this is tensile, energetic with a subtle sea cave aroma that gains intensity in the glass. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, taut and fresh with discrete tropical veins towards the harmonious finish, a hint of frangipane on the aftertaste. Superb.

Vinous - Neal Martin (96)The 2021 Chevalier-Montrachet Clos de Chevaliers Grand Cru has the unenviable task of following Leflaive's brilliant Chevalier. It is more tight-fisted and laconic by comparison, unveiling attractive almond and hazelnut scents alongside crushed stone with aeration. The palate is very well balanced with a touch of reduction on the entry, but it has plenty of body and energy. Fresh-squeezed lime and citrus peel commingle towards the spicy finish that tingles on the tongue. It's not the complete package at the moment, but give it time.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-98)A full primrose yellow. The bouquet is sturdier here, surprisingly, after the pure white fruit Bâtard. However, the chiselled elegance of Chevalier shows much more on the palate, where there is an impressive, if initially restrained, intensity and a second wave of flavour further back on the palate. This will be particularly fine and the aftertaste is notably persistent. A very long finish indeed. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted: October 2023. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru comes from Charlemagne and the Pernand side of the hill, comprises two barrels from the domaine and three barrels from two other sources. It comes across surprisingly closed on the nose. Maybe just going through a dumb phase of élevage? The palate is medium-bodied and much more expressive, gorgeous yellow plum and pithy/peachy notes with a caressing finish. Once the aromatics awaken, this should be a very seductive "CC". |

Vinous - Neal Martin (94)The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet Clos du Cailleret 1er Cru offers subtle tropical fruit on the nose: guava, passion fruit and hints of pineapple. Initially lacking a bit of mineralité and terroir expression, it comes through nicely with aeration. The palate is fresh on the entry, balanced and introverted at first, but just give it a few minutes and it reveals wonderful generosity and mineralité with a long, long finish. Don't be afraid to decant this. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. |
