Chevalier Grand Claud

Domaine François Carillon

Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Chardonnay 2011

2011 Francois Carillon Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru: from Jay. Fifth from the Left in Picture - Lovely rich golden color. Quite an attractive wine to observe although its color contradicts its youth. Very rich on the nose. There is great depth here. You're immediately aware that something special is resting in your glass. Roasted hazelnuts, acacia, quince and a touch of lemon zest present on the nose with hints of honeysuckle. On the palette this wine is lush with incredible concentration and depth. It envelopes the mouth completely with fabulous viscosity. The wine dominates the mid palette with a punch akin to Iron Mike Tyson at his prime. The finish is not as robust but it remains profound for a wine of this age with superb minerality all the way through. The wine is very well balanced although the oak has yet to fully integrate. With time this will be an exceptional wine and the acidity should afford it the ability to age wonderfully. This is a true wine lovers wine. Bravo! - tremendous effort. Drink 2017 onwards. 96+/100

I don't know what else you could want in a wine. To think that this is the same grape that makes such a broad spectrum of quality elsewhere is unbelievable. — 10 years ago

Big, big wine with big, fat acid. Very giving, almost too much. Canned fruit cocktail! — 11 years ago

Serious material, but lacking a little energy for what it is.
