The 2015 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru offers crisp, almost clinical aromas of cold stone and flint, with just a judicious touch of reduction that enhances the overall effect. It takes time to gather momentum, but after a couple of minutes it really develops fine intensity. The palate is very well balanced with a live-wire opening: real energy and tension, superb salinity and a very long finish that fans out gloriously. Without a doubt, this is Pierre-Yves Colin’s finest 2015-an absolute gem.
Anticipated maturity: 2019-2037
Pale, bright yellow. Pure, backward nose is more precise and higher pitched than the Batard, offering scents of tangerine zest, crushed rock and silex minerality. Boasts an uncommon combination of thickness with verve. Not heavy but incredibly opulent in the mouth, with its citrus and fresh herb flavors supported by bracing minerality. A wonderfully intense, seamless wine of terroir, and a step above the other 2015s I tasted at this address. Really superb palate-staining length.
Anticipated maturity: 2024-2033
