The 1999 Ladoix Les Grechons was vinified and aged entirely in new oak barrels. It has a delightful nose made up of minerals, almonds, hazelnuts, spices, and white flowers. This rich, medium-bodied, and silky-textured wine is deep, broad, and has excellent to outstanding amplitude and length. Minerals and assorted nuts can be discerned in its otherwise white fruit-flavored personality. Drink it over the next 5-7 years.
