2008 Lucien Le Moine, Montrachet Grand Cru 1x75cl

Vinous 93-94

Rich, complex nose combines leesy and sulfidey nuances, iodine minerality and deep soil tones. Fat, broad and rich yet almost magically weightless, with an enticing note of cherry-almond lifted on the back by more vibrant quinine and citrus peel. Wonderfully classy wine with superb length, and almost surprisingly easy to taste today, especially following the Chevalier-Montrachet. [Stephen Tanzer, 09/01/2010]
