Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Pungent, high-toned herbal essences, heliotrope, narcissus, and lily in the nose of Leflaive’s 2007 Chevalier-Montrachet lead to a palate of formidable richness and ripeness of peach, pear, and cantaloupe with liquid floral essences allied to palpable chalkiness and creating a vibratory intensity of fruit, floral, herbal, and mineral interchange. Citrus zest, white pepper, and brown spices add invigoration and palate-staining intensity to a finish of lift and energy. The combination here of an extremely ripe and suggestively sweet personality given the vintage with buoyancy and multifaceted minerality is remarkable and the wine’s sheer length sensational. In 2006 this wine went beyond its vintage’s norms in energy, clarity, and minerality; and in 2007 it goes beyond vintage norms in sheer ripeness and richness. This should be worth following for 10-12 years.
Stephen Tanzer
Ineffable, discreet aromas of powdered stone, lemon peel, tangerine and flowers are complicated by an almost metallic minerality. Wonderfully succulent and silky in the mouth, but with a firm stony edge that gives it a rather uncompromising quality. An ethereal essence of wet stone minerality, this powerful, concentrated, classically dry wine is also compellingly smooth on the reverberating aftertaste.
Wine Spectator
Broad yet incisive, this white features lime, apple, white peach and mineral flavors that are matched to a vibrant frame. There's intensity and grip, gaining elegance and expanding on the palate, with a long, mouthwatering finish. Best from 2013 through 2025. 97 cases imported. (BS)

A strikingly complex nose offers seriously impressive breadth with its aromas of ripe, pure and airy nose of white flower, spice and subtle pear aromas. There is excellent richness to the mouth coating flavors that are built on a base of fine minerality, all wrapped in a sappy and mouth coating finish that oozes dry extract. This is really a lovely effort that is at once refined yet powerful with an almost painfully intense backend. A very impressive effort that is positively Zen-like in its poise and quiet sense of harmony. A 'wow' wine though note that it will need plenty of time to fulfill all of its vast potential.
