Louis Latour Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles(1995)
Tasting Note
Clear and bright with a light gold colour with green tints. Although shut down it displays a floral honeyed nose with creamy vanilla toast flavours. The palate is delicious, it's floral and honeyed nectar, so light in the mouth but full of complex flavours. Citrus / apple, with nutty tropical flavours, follow balanced acidity and toasty oak flavours.
Vinification
Barrel fermented with 100% malolactic fermentation, 8 to 10 months ageing in new oak casks

- Extremely powerful and oily in texture with tons of minerality and great acids to pin it down. Perhaps the longest finish I have ever experienced in a white. I would sip it, take a bite, let it linger. Try the 1991 Ermitage Le Pavillon from Chapoutier (a 100pt Robert the Porker wine). Then when the finish from the Ermitage has faded, back came the Chevalier. Wow.... I have to retaste it as this note was made in 2005.
