The Domaine Michel Niellon Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru appears a golden yellow color in the glass. The nose is mineral-driven and somewhat shy followed by a palate of pronounced minerality with ripe, rich fruit flavors. Powerful and impressively concentrated, dry with a complex and persistent finish.
Burghound Review:
A gorgeously fresh, airy and cool nose combines notes of green apple, a panoply of white flowers nuances, wet stone and a pretty array of exotic spice elements, especially jasmine. There is a notably more refined mouthfeel to the tautly muscular and overtly mineral-driven medium weight plus flavors that exhibit focused power on the impressively long, balanced, youthfully austere and very classy finale. This is exceptionally stylish and a wine that should easily reward a decade plus of keeping. Drink: 2031+
