The 2012 Chevalier-Montrachet Clos des Chevaliers Grand Cru comes from Chartron’s 0.46-hectare monopole perched just above Marquis de Laguiche’s Montrachet. It has a very fine bouquet that seems almost aristocratic in the womb – a broody intensity here. The palate is extremely well-balanced with a core of candied, spicy fruit: nectarine and dried apricot, plenty of spice toward the long and intense finish that lingers long in the mouth. Superb. “I am not a negociant...” assured Jean Chartron, “...except for this barrel of Montrachet.”
