Sap-laced minerals, nutmeg, and ginger dominate the nose of the 2002 Chevalier-Montrachet La Cabotte (domaine). This super-concentrated, powerful, profound wine is medium-bodied and armed with magnificent purity. Fresh, loaded with flavors reminiscent of pears, resin, and gravel, it is long, expressive, and complex. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2015.
