A very ripe but not roasted or unduly exotic nose of wonderful breadth featuring an intoxicating mix of white flower, mango, peach, poached pear and Asian spice notes merges into rich, full, unusually forward and impressively concentrated flavors that possess serious muscle, size and weight on the powerfully long finish that possesses better acidity than one expects from the fantastically rich mid-palate. This presently displays quite a bit of wood influence on the finish but there is so much material here that it will be successfully absorbed in due coarse. In sum, I do not believe that this will be one of the all time great vintages for the DRC's Montrachet but it will absolutely be one of the most interesting.
