Score 90-94/100 · Drink 2002-2010, Pierre Rovani, Apr 2000

The highly impressive 1998 Montrachet has a nose composed of white fruits, toasted oak, and minerals. Medium-bodied, muscular, and thick, this is a dense, spicy wine, filled with ripe apples, red berries, and anise. Extremely well-balanced and harmonious, it has an extraordinarily long finish that reveals loads of warm (alcoholic) fruit that should integrate as the elevage progresses. Projected maturity: 2002-2010. Imported by William Deutsch and Sons, Armonk, NY; Tel. (914) 273-1221.

Very ripe aromas of smoke and pit fruits, plus the mentholated aspect often shown by wines from this grand cru. Big and impressively structured for the year. Slightly disjointed combination of oak char and apple. Long, slow-building finish.
