Some 8 years after the vintage the '03 Montrachet remains remarkably fresh, in fact almost surprisingly so with its ripe but not not excessively mature or unduly exotic nose of wonderful breadth featuring an intoxicating mix of white flower, mango, peach, poached pear and Asian spice notes merges into rich, full, unusually forward and impressively concentrated flavors that possess serious muscle, size and weight on the powerfully long finish that possesses better acidity than one expects from the fantastically rich mid-palate. This presently displays a bit of warmth on the palate coating finish and the generous wood that this evidenced just after it was bottled has been almost completely integrated. An impressive showing for a vintage that wasn't especially kind to white burgundies, at least in general. Note that I have upgraded my score slightly as well as extended my initial drinking window by a few years as this is clearly still on the way up.
