Written Notes

The 2005 Ramonet Montrachet was unfortunately oxidized (DQ). The 2002 Ramonet Montrachet was not. It had a smokehouse nose with corny, sweeter fruit. It was quite oily in its aromas, showing white ice and more smoke. There was a big anise streak and lots of structure to this intense wine. It was almost as if a twist of vodka was in there! It was almost too young, more intense than the 2007 for sure (96+).

Nutty, fat, and very, very concentrated on the nose. Still very, very closed. Similar on the palate. Immense concentration and depth. Excellent fruit. Still a baby. This is very classy and very profound. Potentially a great wine. Even better than the 2005.
