Montrachet 1999 75cl

Lafon's 1999 Montrachet is one of the vintage's few blockbuster. Boisterous flowers, minerals, and pears can be discerned in its explosive aromatics. Medium-bodied and impeccably delineated as well as nuanced, this rich, broad, and opulent wine is exceptionally refined. Satin-textured and loaded with stones, pears, apples, toast, hints of creme brulee and vanilla bean, this is a powerful, harmonious, elegant, and complete wine. Its majestic finish displays buttered pain grille as well as a myriad of spices. Projected maturity: 2004-2012.

Explosive white. Impressive fat texture in this full-bodied, opulent Chardonnay. Cascades with toasted oak, caramel, mineral, tropical fruit and lots of smoky oak. So powerful; let it settle down a few years. Best from 2005 through 2015. 119 cases made
