Vintage information 1998:

The reds needed testing before buying; about 25% of them - even from good producers - had excessively drying tannins, more tannin than might be expected to assimilate with age. Those wines were not fun to drink young, they are not fun to drink now, and are unlikely to be much better old.
The rest have pure fruit, density and lots of interest - recent bottles have show quite well. The whites weree mixed - some fantastic Chablis has passed my lips, but wines of the Côte d'Or were more variable.
