Medium yellow with a hint of green tint. Too ripe, round and oaky for me. Lacked dimensionality and structure compared to the '01......tasted more like an over oaked CA Chardonnay than burgundy.

(Jadot Louis Puligny-Montrachet) No replacement 98's so here's the 99. Also quite golden in colour. The nose is deep, still showing a trace of wood, slightly creamy with a dense honeysuckle note. Gradually becomes more butterscotch. Smooth, slightly waxy and honied palate with good acidity and medium length. For me, despite no real faults the overall impression is a little heavy. Still it has good intensity and is already very tasty.
