The 2018 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Les Demoiselles is showing very well, unwinding in the glass with a youthfully reserved and oak-inflected bouquet of citrus oil, white flowers, Anjou pear, toasted almonds, and vanilla pod. Full-bodied, satiny, and enveloping, with terrific mid-palate amplitude and bright acids, it's long and penetrating, concluding with a mouth-watering, mineral finish.
The 2017 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Les Demoiselles is very serious indeed, unfurling in the glass with notes of yellow citrus fruits and white flowers that mingle with hints of crushed chalk, framed by smoky new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, deep, and multidimensional, with searing concentration, chewy dry extract, and bright acids, concluding with a long, authoritative finish. This powerful and structured Chevalier will require some bottle age.
The 2015 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Demoiselles performed extremely well, offering up a reserved bouquet of white flowers, preserved citrus, toasted nuts and oak vanillin. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, powerful, and very concentrated, with a deep, multidimensional mid-palate, racy acids, and a long, saline finish. This is carrying quite an overt framing of new wood, but it's a seriously structured and beautifully balanced Chevalier-Montrachet that will warmly reward patience.
The 2013 Chevalier-Montrachet Demoiselle Grand Cru, bottled under DIAM, was showing a little oxidation on the nose that shaves away mineralité and terroir expression. The palate is tangy and a little chewy on the entry with hints of marmalade and orange peel. While there is satisfying weight in the mouth, it is missing some precision at the moment. The harmony here and the tension suggest that this should develop for those with the nous to age their bottles for several years.
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.
The 2009 Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles is utterly seamless. As inviting as the Chevalier is today, it is also very, very young and years away from offering its finest drinking. White flowers, pears and slate inform the taut, energetic finish. The personality of the vintage comes through, but there is more than enough buffering acidity to balance the overtness of the fruit.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
