Lucien Le Moine Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru 2016 (98 VM)
“Bright lemon-yellow. Bright, pure, reticent aromas of citrus zest, flowers and crushed rock. Pristine and penetrating on the palate, with a sexy touch of sweetness countered by pungent minerality. Conveys an impression of extract-rich solidity with great energy and definition. The almost painful whiplash of a finish boasts razor-sharp focus and great sappy lift. A real essence of Chevalier-Montrachet–and one of the longest 2016s I tried on my late-spring visit.”
