The 1999 Montrachet Grand Cru is poured from magnum, the first in a flurry of wines commencing a La Paulée in Beaune. I find this a little spirituous on the nose, powerful, almost "burly" in style. I would have liked more mineralité to show through. The palate is actually better with impressive weight. This is a broad-shouldered Montrachet with a slightly oily texture and a dash of white pepper mixed with green olives on the finish. Fine, but just missing the pedigree of the best vintages.
Probably slightly on the other side of maturity. Deep gold in color, with a beautiful butterscotch, green apple and citrus nose, the wine is soft, elegant and fleshy, but not exciting. 93 Points
