Leflaive Chevalier Montrachet 1996 750mL

1996 Leflaive Chevalier Montrachet - Burghound Tasting Note March 13, 2010: Unusually after 10 years, there is actually very little separation in freshness between the magnum and the 750 ml version and as such, I repeat the note from that format here: An absolutely stunningly elegant nose soars from the glass offering almost unbelievably good delineation and nuanced white flower fruit and subtle petrol notes with detailed, pure and racy middle weight complex flavors underpinned by intense minerality and superb length. This is still youthful though it is so fine and pure that it's still a joy to drink now. In short, this is reference standard stuff.
