"A now fully mature nose of lemon-lime and white flower aromas lead to rich and muscular flavors that possess excellent depth and punch. For all its size and power, it remains symmetrical and solidly balanced by the ripe supporting acidity and the length is absolutely show stopping. This is a reference standard Bâtard that is drinking perfectly and happily, I have had no run-ins with premature oxidation with this particular '99 Sauzet though I have with some of the other wines in the range. For my taste, this has arrived at its full maturity though it should be capable of holding here for at least another decade."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
