Details
Aromas of narcissus, honeysuckle, lily-of-the-valley, white peach, and fresh lemon in Pillot's 2007 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Caillerets take exquisitely luscious form on the palate, with accompanying counterpoint from chalk, salt, and iodine as well as rich suggestions of pasted almond and pistachio. These characteristics seem to blossom into a shower of more subtle and intriguing floral, mineral, and fruit nuances in an absolutely haunting finish. This remarkably seductive, energetic, elegant, and refined wine should be worth following for close to a decade, but don't neglect it young either. There are eight barrels of it. - David Schildknecht
