By Charles Curtis MW Burgundy 2021 en primeur 11/1/2022 (See more on Decanter...)96 points (Domaine Michel Niellon Chardonnay Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Burgundy France White) In 2021 the domaine protected this site above all from frost but still lost half their crop despite being surrounded by the also well-protected vines of Domaine Leflaive. Accessible almost even now the aromas of green apple and passionfruit coconut butter and baking spice are almost opening even now. There is a lovely freshness and silky texture yet this is a powerful wine with impressive length and density at the end. This should open in five years and continue to improve for at least twenty-five more. (Drink between 2027-2050)
