Note di degustazione
The 2005 Montrachet is, in my experience, a tricky and variable wine. Once again, though, we are fortunate to have a fine example in this, the most satisfying bottle of the 2005 I have ever tasted. Dried orchard fruit, spice, honey and tropical notes all grace a forward, silky Montrachet that is likely to offer its best drinking sooner rather than later. Tasted at the DRC Montrachet charity event in New York.

Sadly, two bottles of the 2005 Montrachet are oxidized.
Picked even later than the reds – perfectly healthy berries but, as always with Montrachet, with marvellous freshness. Deep gold already. Quite exceptionally concentrated, dense and savoury. Straight-backed, rigorous nose with lots of sap and minerals but richness too. 'It always feels like a sin to drink this wine', says Aubert de Villaine, referring to just how easy and rewarding it is to do so. This is a substantial meal of a wine that insistently pulls the taster in to the spicy, creamy but not at all sweet fume that hovers over the tingling elixir. (JR)
