97 AG "This pairing of 1999s is one of the highlights of the evening. A fabulous bottle of the 1999 Montrachet from DRC is next. Deep, powerful and phenolic in its impression of weight, the 1999 is magnificent tonight. Hazelnut, pastry and butter are some of the notes that fill out the wine’s ample frame. The 1999 Montrachet is a bold, almost arrogant wine that demands attention. It has mine, that’s for sure." 93 AM Massively rich with laser beam-like focus of elegant white flower fruit, rich, lemon tinged flavors of wonderful purity, good complexity and terrific length. The balance, flavor detail and elegance, not to mention raw power is something to behold. If this continues to add weight and power, my rating will certainly prove to be conservative.
