The 1996 Montrachet, while not quite at the level of this estate's 1995, is a spectacular wine. Its refined, ripe, and beguiling nose of flowers and minerals is followed by an intricate, highly-delineated, silky-textured, and full-bodied personality. Complex and concentrated flavors of gravel, minerals, red currants, earth, chalk, and honeysuckle are found in this defined yet broadly structured offering. Its admirably long and focused finish revealed traces of sweet oak spice. It should be at its plateau of maturity between 2003 and 2012. Bravo! The score, noted on a range and in parentheses, indicates that the wine was tasted from barrel. I was extremely impressed with Prieur's three top wines, the Meursault Perrieres, Corton-Charlemagne, and Montrachet, which are at a level only attained by the very best Burgundian estates. Imported by William Deutsch and Sons, Armonk, NY; Tel. (914) 273-1221.

Incredible depth of aroma and flavor, tantalizing with its potential after but one whiff of the complex spice, fruit and oak. As opulent as white Burgundy gets, it's round, thick and creamlike, full-bodied yet racy with acidity. Although very fat, it's firm and muscular, with solid aging potential. Exotically violet-scented (from the oak) on the incredibly balanced finish, which hangs in suspended animation for at least 60 seconds as your palate vibrates in the wake of swallowing this monster beauty. Best from 2005 through 2020.??–PM??Region: France / Burgundy / Montrachet Select to Add
