2007 Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru Michel Niellon 75cl / 13.5%

A bottle of 2007 Chevalier-Montrachet from Michel Niellon.

Chevalier Montrachet is situated just above Le Montrachet, and is known for its minerality and ultra refined acidity and balance.

'From a 0.22 ha parcel of vines planted in '62 and '68). This is a study in elegance as thepositively stunning nose displays breathtaking purity of expression with incredibly complex and airy white flower and ripe greenfruit aromas that precede beautifully balanced, harmonious and chiseled, indeed even crystalline middle weight flavors thatpossess outstanding length and knockout depth. This is class in a glass with terrific vibrancy and the palate staining finish isalmost painfully intense and about the only nit is a trace of warmth though this is as much due to the superb transparency asthe actual level of alcohol. If you can find it, buy it. 95/100' Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 2009
