"The 2002 Montrachet is about as profound as a wine can be on this planet. Bold, voluptuous and racy in the glass, the 2002 is opulent but never heavy in any way. The wine just floats on the palate as it captivates all the senses with its extraordinary beauty. There is only one problem with the 2002. It is too young. Although stratospheric today, it is likely to only improve from here. In 2002, a quick flowering and balanced weather conditions resulted in a healthy crop. Once again, the Chardonnay was the last fruit to be brought in." Vinous, Feb 2015 |
