97 JCL "A gorgeous wine . . . . Linear, focused, pure and lifted with subtle flavors of toasted hazlenuts, almonds, brioche, and yellow flowers. Long finish with lingering notes of minerals and slate." 95 AM The now expressive nose features astonishingly elegant aromas of green spiced apple and hints of exotic fruit and citrus that complements the intensely mineral flavors that are crystalline and gorgeously well-detailed. The 2000 Chevy is a complete wine with mind boggling purity and a brilliantly long finish that seems to be crafted from liquified rock.
