Score 92-94/100 · Drink 1997-2001, Pierre Rovani, Apr 1997

Potentially better than the Chevalier Montrachet, the unbottled Montrachet has an extremely expressive, layered nose of attractive fruit. Judicious use of oak has been employed to produce a delicately toasty, nutty and tropical fruit-laden wine that is full-bodied, copmlex and very long. Anticipated maturity 2004-2012. Importer Clicquot, Inc. New York, NY; tel (212) 888-7575 and in Massachusetts: Classic Wine Imports, Boston, MA; tel (617) 731-6644. This note is the result of tastings I did in Burgundy between January 7 and January 29. Ratings with a range of scores in parentheses indicate the wine was tasted from cask, not bottle.
