Xavier Monnot Description
Les Chevalières is a lieu-dit lying behind the town of Meursault in the valley leading towards Auxey-Duresses. It is one of several lieux-dits in Meursault that perform above their official "village" level status. The soil of Les Chevalières is very stony and the wine typically displays a strong mineral character, firm acidity, and piercing tension. "There is always a big spine of acidity in Chevalières," says Monnot. Aged from 12 to 14 months in 15-20% percent new French oak.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
Aromas and flavors of white flowers, citronella and hazelnut cream abound, backed by lively acidity. Lip-smacking and fresh, this white persists on the toasty, smoky finish. Drink now through 2028.
