This is one of the greatest dry whites I have ever consumed. I was lucky enough to drink it this spring at a friend's birthday in Hong Kong. It was so dense and layered with an amazing character of apples, cream, dried pineapples and apricots. It was full-bodied but not heavy, and there was this incredible energy in the wine that shocked you to the bone. It went on for what seemed like hours on the palate.

Firm and intensely focused, pouring a wealth of pineapple, grapefruit and walnut-tinged pear flavors into a lithe and elegant frame. Built to develop with a certain roughness. This needs until 2000 to 2005 to be at its best.--Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Montrachet vertical. –HS

The 1990 Le Montrachet exhibits considerable opulence, as well as a tell-tale nose of coconut, buttered apples, and smoky, toasty new oak. Magnificently deep, expansive, and rich, with moderate acidity, it should prove to be a sensational DRC Le Montrachet. It is capable of lasting 15-20 years.
