Note di degustazione
The Montrachet exhibits earth, wild mushroom, smoke, and mineral aromas as well as a hugely concentrated, extracted, and intensely complex personality. Copious quantities of Brazil nuts, gravel, spiced pears, buttered toast, and flowers saturate the palate in this velvety-textured, magnificently balanced, and full-bodied block-buster. Its admirably long finish appears to last close to 40 seconds. Projected maturity: 2006-2015. Importer: Kobrand, Inc., New York, NY; (212) 490-9300.

Less refined but no less impressive aromas of smoked meat, mint, iodine, honey and acacia flower. Great sweetness and fat in the mouth; an extremely ripe wine that comes across as slightly less intense and slightly lower in acidity than the Chevalier. Very long on the palate, but the finish lacks the subtlety of the last wine.
Informazioni sul produttore
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
