Montrachet--Vintage 1999
Côte de Beaune, Ramonet
In original wooden cases
"One of the aspects of a great Montrachet that never ceases to amaze me is how a wine that is so monumentally scaled can deliver such finesse and delicacy. The '99 is certainly cut from this cloth with its massive fruit of orange blossoms and limestone followed by dense, very tight, beautifully nuanced flavors all wrapped in unbelievable complexity and depth. Yet one senses that only a very small portion of the wine's potential is being revealed. The acidity is pronounced yet there is more than enough shve to balance it. Painfully intense with palate staining, focused and layered flavors and phenomenal length that is hard to believe. A genuinely great wine." BH, July 1, 2002
