This wine is brilliant. Bursting with intense tropical fruit and sour pineapple. Intense without weight. Very long finish. Excitement is in the air when we get ready to open this wine. Premox/bad bottle tally - so far 1 bad bottle out of 10.

Similar to last. So feminine, so sleek. The nose contains delicate citrus notes that from a wonderful perfume. The finish is spectacular in it's weightlessness- a sublime, almost water-like delicacy which quickly and completely fools your senses by u-turning with a smile-induced, 30 second finish. I am in love with this wine.

Drinking beautifully right now. Light in color, the austerity of its youth has worn off and it is maturing nicely. It has all of the components in spades and with class. Fruits at first - crisp pear/apple and stunning, lingering hints of grapefruit. Followed by a textured mid palate of minerality and subtle stone. Long, but light finish. Superb all the way around.

Quince, stone, lemon all swirling magnificently. Tart. Gorgeous.

Wonderfully elegant. Another great bottle. A long decant is advised.

Back on the upswing! Classic elegance and femininity of a Chevalier. Crisp apple, under-ripe pear and traces of wet stone.
