The 2019 Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru has turned out very well indeed, offering up aromas of pear, orange oil, white flowers, nutmeg and freshly baked bread, framed by a subtle touch of youthful reduction. Full-bodied, satiny and elegantly muscular, it's racy and concentrated, with more mid-palate plenitude and chalky structure than the more delicate Bienvenues.

This has a broad nose of seashore, lime blossom, hazelnut and citronella, with ample citrus and mineral flavors in reserve. Shows intensity and balance, with a superlong aftertaste that focuses the mineral elements. Terrific freshness and complexity. Best from 2023 through 2029. 115 cases made, 23 cases imported.??–BS??Region: France / Burgundy / Batard-Montrachet Select to Add
