Tasting notes
The bright light straw-colored 2002 Montrachet bursts from the glass with spices, white pepper, pears, and flowers. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and lush, its oily-textured character offers broad, ample layers of tangy apples, pulp-laden pears, anise, toasted nuts, and ginger snaps. This wine has superb depth, complexity, and length. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2018. Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate # 153
