For me, the two greatest white Burgundies of this vintage are Coche's 1999 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru and Domaine D'Auvenay's Chevalier-Montrachet. I finally had the occasion to drink them side by side, and on this occasion, Coche-Dury was the winner, delivering a magical bouquet of sweet orchard and stone fruit mingled with notions of toasted sesame, praline, orange oil and iodine. Full-bodied, deep and layered, it's seamless and concentrated, with pristine balance, palate-staining texture and a long, resonant finish.
