1999 Leflaive, Domaine Batard Montrachet Blanc
Condition:
Superripe aromas of white flowers, roasted nuts, nut oil, herbs and nutmeg; distinctly more rustic tasted after the Bienvenue. Then fat, thick, silky and extremely rich, with a stronger impression of sweetness and a suggestion of chewy grape skin. Slightly disjointed today, yet more expressive than the Bienvenue, even if it just hinting at the richness and complexity to come. Finishes with palate-staining persistence. ST
