Loads of minerals and spices are intermingled with toast in the aromatic profile of the 2001 Chevalier-Montrachet. A wine of exceptional purity as well as elegance, it is light to medium-bodied, and sports a deep, concentrated personality. Its mineral and flower-dominated flavor profile is awesomely detailed. This silky-textured effort lingers on the palate for up to 45 seconds, displaying a myriad of spices awash in minerals. Projected maturity: 2005-2012.
