2009 Domaine Leflaive Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru, Burgundy, France 750ml
Domaine Leflaive Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru is widely regarded as one of the world's finest white Burgundies, consistently producing highly-rated, age-worthy Chardonnay characterized by immense precision, intense minerality, and electric acidity. Known for a crystalline structure, it showcases notes of crushed limestone, white flowers, citrus, and orange oil.
2009 vintage review: "An ultra-pure and high-toned nose of mineral-based reduction, spiced pear and acacia blossom gives way to overtly stony and quite finely detailed broad-shouldered flavors that despite their significant size and weight, are crystalline in their transparency. This very much seems to be built on a base of liquid limestone with impeccable balance and flat out stunning persistence. This is a "wow" wine of both volume and finesse that will definitely age as the acid support is very firm, particularly for the vintage, in fact the intensity of the finish is almost painful." - Domaine Leflaive
