Lean and bracing, showing snappy apple and pineapple flavors and a tight overlay of spicy vanilla. Bright and youtfhul. Best from 1998 to 2000.--Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Montrachet vertical. 288 cases made.??–HS??Region: France / Burgundy / Montrachet Select to Add

One of the most anticipated wines of the night, the 1988 Montrachet is utterly sublime. Understated, nuanced and wonderfully detailed, especially for a wine of its age. Lemon confit, mint, mineral and sweet floral overtones all grace this exquisitely beautiful, inviting Montrachet. A second recent bottle was every bit as memorable. Tasted at the DRC Montrachet charity event in New York.
