Ramonet Montrachet: The 2010 Ramonet Montrachet is a rock star and has a lot in common with the 2010 Lafon Montrachet. The stars aligned in this vintage.

As brilliant as all of the preceding whites were, this was simply better and one of the greatest wines of the year for mine. It poured out with a green tinge. The nose was so inviting and complex, with notes of Arum lily, spearmint, pure white peach and cream. The palate was so rich and layered, but with no excess weight. Exotic flavours filled every crevice of the mouth and it had such great flesh and underlying minerally structure. Length of flavour was phenomenal.

Wine of the Day among a strong field of great Burgundies and Champagnes. Years to go still and no sign of any oxidation issues. A touch if botrytis on the finish adds complexity without being overwhelming. A great vintage chez Ramonet

In a flight with 15 Ramonet Montrachet and 12 Coche CC. All were exceptional, though for me this was probably my favorite for here and now. (this bottle was from the same lot i had in 2020, not 2021). Bouquet was sensational with florals, mint, and citrus oozing from the glass, yet it was probably the least of the 3. But the flavors were right in the zone for me, citrus, minerally, super delineated power. Chris thought this had more to evolve and perhaps another gear, I’m not convinced….i think this is in a perfect spot, and given my experience with Ramonet and premox I’m not waiting 10 years to open my next bottle

Cru Crew Wine dinner hosted by Brad England (Mara restaurant at the Four Seasons hotel in Minneapolis, MN.): Served alongside the '08, '11 and '12. Second imo to the '08, although others may disagree. Medium straw color. Spice and some tropical fruit notes similar to the '08. Palate not as rich and lush however giving the nod to the '08 imo.
