FINE WHITE BURGUNDY INCLUDING RARE CHEVALIER-MONTRACHET FROM DOMAINE LEFLAIVE
Lying in Twickenham, Middlesex (EHD)
Lots marked ??? are offered duty-paid, but available in bond
Unless otherwise stated offered in original cartons
Chevalier-Montrachet, Grand Cru--Vintage 1989
Domaine-bottled: Domaine Leflaive
Not in original carton
Tasting Note: The 1989 Chevalier-Montrachet needs more time. While it is the firmest and least forthcoming of Leflaive's 1989s from an aromatic perspective, it also exhibits the longest finish. In fact, the entire wine explodes at the end of the palate, suggesting 4-6 years of cellaring is required. This honeyed, creamy textured wine possesses superb acidity for a 1989, and should prove to be capable of 10-15 or more years of longevity. 95 Points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 79 Feb 1992
