The 2017 Meursault Les Chevalières is especially good this year, the charm of the vintage marrying with the inherent tension that defines the wines from this site to magical effect. Unfurling in the glass with scents of lemon oil, crisp Anjou pear, hazelnut cream, blanched almonds and white flowers, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a layered and multidimensional core, racy acidity and a long, chalky finish. In fact, this might be the finest young Chevalières I have ever tasted. Amounting to a mere 0.12 hectares, this is the smallest of the domaine's holdings, typically producing merely two barrels of wine, so it will sadly be difficult to find.
