Amber-tawny in colour. The nose has completely oxidised. The mouthfeel is still marvellous – a marvellous shell for a wine that has sadly departed. There are no doubt great bottles of this wine out there. (AH)

(just fined) Knockout nose combines stone fruits, iodine, vanilla and flinty minerality, with a pungent pineapple quality emerging with air. Tactile and chewy wine that's as dense as a solid yet manages to retain a lightness. This infant of a Montrachet is most impressive today on the inexorable mounting back end. This is 14% alcohol, from a crop level of just 30 hectoliters per hectare, according to Lafon.
Ripeness of lemon peel and possibly white stone fruits, along with a note of honey, nuts and vanilla. Rich, creamy and mouthfilling and broad. Long and becoming more delicate towards the finish. Rounded and relatively soft though not lacking freshness. (JH)
Superripe aromas of pear, peach, clove and smoked meat. Very ripe and highly concentrated, conveying a chewy impression of solidity. Wonderfully tactile wine, and yet there's terrific spine and verve here. Quite explosive on the mounting, utterly vibrant finish.
