Lot #459. Domaine des Comtes Lafon Montrachet 1999

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 95-98 AM.
"Stunning nose of super ripe exotic fruits and dried apricot of incredible complexity. Big, broad shouldered flavors with a silky, luscious, rather textured palate impression that offers dried apple, pear, stones and earth. The richness is hard to believe yet the wine remains in perfect balance with a persistence I could taste for the rest of the day. This vies with the 99 Coche-Dury Corton-Charlemagne, Sauzet Chevalier and Ramonet Montrachet for wine of the vintage honors." Burghound.com, Jul 01, 2001
Provenance: The Tower Cellar
Notes: Slightly recessed cork, nicked, lightly scuffed, lightly bin soiled label.
