| Description: | Burghound (Allen Meadows) 92. Sweet Spot, Outstanding. "A wonderfully expressive pure, elegant and airy nose of white flowers and oyster shell notes that is a step up in overall elegance as well as complexity gives way to round yet precise and palate staining medium full flavors suffused with an intense minerality while delivering both power and weight yet delivering them with grace and refinement. This wine impressed me to no end for its sense of balance and harmony.". Stephen Tanzer 90-93. "Brisk nose combines crushed stone, grapefruit and fresh pineapple. Dense, supple and rich, with lovely depth of lemon and mineral flavor. Offers an exhilarating combination of sweetness and energy. The long, dusty finish is quite stylish.". Wine Advocate (David Schildknecht) 91. "From a high-elevation parcel of true Montee de Tonerre plus a vineyard in the south-facing, grand cru-like Chapelot below, the Fevre 2006 Chablis Montee de Tonerre seems to reflect its fossil-rich Kimmeridgian soil in a strikingly overt chalkiness in the nose and on the palate. Blueberry, grapefruit, and lemon too are prominent, but the minerals set the tone and the long finish is a bit austere in its reliance on them. Emerging deep-seated nuttiness and herbal inflections promise further complexity as this enjoys a couple of years of bottle age. It should keep well for a decade if not longer." |
