RAMONET
Recently removed from excellent cellarage
Montrachet Grand Cru--Vintage 1999
Domaine-bottled: Ramonet
Slightly damaged label
Tasting note: The explosive nose of the 1999 Montrachet displays toast, yeast, smoke, pears, quince, and minerals. This medium to full-bodied wine has huge richness, breadth, density, and power. It is plump, has outstanding grip, and would unquestionably have merited an exceptional score if its acidity had not been somewhat sharp and tart. Nevertheless, this wine's density of fruit and concentration lead me to hope it may well overcome this trait with cellaring. Projected maturity: 2005-2014. (90-92) Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate #133, February 2001
