Herbal liqueur, honeyed minerals, and chalk emanate from the glass of the superb 2001 Chevalier-Montrachet Clos des Chevaliers. It reveals great depth to its dense, velvety-personality. Liquid minerals, pears, spices, and hints of melon are found in its penetrating flavor profile as well as in its exceptionally long, delineated finish. This magnificently refined wine is juicy, pure, and concentrated. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2012.
