Discreet wood is present on the exuberantly spicy and markedly exotic nose of passion fruit, dried peach, apricot, fennel, jasmine tea and hints of clove. The incredibly rich broad-shouldered flavors coat the palate with an abundance of dry extract that imparts a thick and textured, indeed almost chewy, character to the lavish and generous finish that is at once fantastically powerful yet impeccably well-balanced, compact and youthfully austere finale that just goes on and on. In the context of the last 5 vintages, this is not the most concentrated of them for the Domaine's Montrachet, but the length is genuinely dazzling as is the upside develop potential.
