Note: Due to space limitations, no tasting notes have been included, only my qualitative score. Obviously, the 2001 dry whites are extremely long-lived wines. They can be drunk young or cellared for 20-30+ years. I recently had the pleasure of tasting the 1962 Domaine de Chevalier, which was still incredibly fresh and lively. In many ways, these whites age even more slowly than red Bordeaux.
Aromas of lime, lemon and mineral. Full-bodied, showing subtle undertones of vanilla and honey, with a long finish. A beauty.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 19/20 points.
