The most complete of these wines with a dash of each of them. Fresh, bright and beautifully detailed aromas of green apple and roasted nuts lead to massive, marvelously intense, muscular flavors of simply incredible complexity and palate staining force. Quite elegant and remarkably well balanced for such a massive wine and this delivers wave after wave of sappy extract on the seemingly never-ending finish. It never ceases to amaze me how Montrachet can be so big yet so light on the palate. A great Ramonet Montrachet.
