BURGHOUND 92 POINTS "OUTSTANDING" - "As is the case with the Clos de la Maltroie there is sufficient reduction present that it overshadows the underlying fruit. Read More...
By contrast there is an excellent sense of tension to the well-delineated, intense and pure medium-bodied flavors that conclude in a dry, linear and driving finish that evidences hints of austerity. This is very backward and will need time to flesh out and develop but the material is certainly present for that to occur."

BURGHOUND 91 POINTS - "This is also notably ripe but not exotic with an appealingly layered nose of both white and yellow orchard fruit coupled with Read More...
lovely floral aromas that give way to rich, generous and concentrated medium-bodied flavors that terminate in a clean, cool and precise finish. There is a citrusy character to the agreeably dry finale of moderate depth but note that my score is predicated on the assumption that more will develop with bottle age."

complexity to the moderately exotic yellow fruit aromas that include lightly spiced notes of peach, apricot and mango. There is excellent density and plenty of extract to the medium-bodied flavors that possess outstanding intensity as well as mirroring the same beautiful depth of the nose on the tension-filled and gorgeously persistent finish. This is a notably dry La Romanée of class and grace." 2017+

energetic and beautifully detailed middle weight flavors that possess a clean, dry, linear and impeccably well-balanced finish. This is an excellent Chassagne villages and worth your attention."

of a world class gymnast contrasted against the massive bulk of a world class weight lifter in the Bâtard. The airy, pure, refined and elegant nose of white flower, anise and clove aromas introduces rich, full and solidly powerful flavors that are even more tightly focused and delineated on the texture, intense and explosive finish that is positively crystalline in its transparency. This is one of those 'wow' wines and highly recommended." 2012+

lemon and orange nuances as well as the classic floral aromas. The extremely rich, intense and full-bodied flavors possess surprisingly good detail given the opulence of the mid-palate and culminate in a superbly long finish. This should also reward well medium-term cellaring." 2017+

wet stone notes that continue onto the rich, fleshy and mouth coating large-bodied and dense flavors that also brim with a fine minerality on the explosive finish. Like a number of wines in the range, 2009 is not the most elegant of vintages for this storied wine but it is most impressive all the same." 2017+

and pungent wet stone aromas is stunning. Not surprisingly, the medium-bodied flavors are much finer than those of the Bâtard or Corton-Charlemagne though not as big or powerful. The acid spine is also quite firm but somewhat better integrated as there is no obvious malic tang, all wrapped in a gorgeously intense, lingering and impeccably well-balanced finish."
eROBERT PARKER 97 POINTS: "A huge, complete wine, the 2010 Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles boasts stunning inner perfume and layers of expressive fruit, all supported by veins of minerality that occasionally appear hidden by the wine’s sheer stuffing. In 2010, the Demoiselles impresses for its verticality, fabulous overall balance and completeness. It is another wine that should handsomely repay cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2020."

with its mineral-based reduction, citrus and lightly spiced pear scents merging seamlessly into ultra-precise and intense flavors of crystalline purity. There is also plenty of the hallmark penetrating minerality on the explosively long, driving and bone dry finish, indeed this is very much like rolling rocks around in your mouth. This is presently very linear but impeccably well-balanced and overall, this is wonderfully classy."

This is a very, very understated effort and it's going to require the better part of a decade before it unwinds to reveal its full potential." 2018+

Deep color; a classy nose, not overripe with herbal and mineral nuances. On the palate, it's all about dark chocolate and the silky texture. Super sweet, very, very intense flavors from start to finish. Quite massive, cherry fruit paste. Very refined, too, and very fine.
