"This was brilliant when it was first reviewed in 2002 and it remains brilliant today with a simply knockout nose of maturing, but not aged, fruit and floral aromas that are cut with ample amounts of both spice and stone, the latter of which continues onto the hugely rich and flat out incredibly complex big-bodied flavors that are blessed with buckets of dry extract that completely coats and stains the palate on the fantastically long finish. While this could be drunk, and enjoyed today, it is still on the way up and once it arrives at its peak, it should hold there for a decade or so. A real stunner of a Montrachet."
