95 AM "Radiant white flower, citrus and limestone aromas are framed by a dollop of oak spice and lead to a refined, elegant, understated flavors combining intense minerality and marvelous detail plus remarkable depth and complexity. This is edgier and brighter than the Bâtard and just oozes class and refinement as it's constructed along the classic Chevalier lines of silk, lace and an intense stoniness rather than power and richness. A brilliant effort." 95-98 ST "Delicate but completely ripe aromas of yellow plum, melon, minerals and spices; less oaky at the moment than the Batard. Dense but suave on entry, then pure, vibrant and brilliantly delineated in the middle palate. In its combination of richness, delicacy and minerality, this is a bit in the style of the Caillerets. A monumental wine in the making."
