The 1992s all reveal ripe fruit, higher acidity than most white burgundies (remember, the malolactic was blocked), and laudable purity. Even richer than the Bienvenue-Batard-Montrachet, the 1992 Batard-Montrachet is dense and unctuous, with fine acidity, powerful, authoritative flavors, and whoppingly long length.
Remoissenet enjoys a well-deserved reputation for his white wines. There is a tendency at this estate to block the malolactic, keep the wines off their lees, rack them frequently, and bottle them after a relatively vigorous filtration. The fact that so much remains in the wines makes one wonder what they would be like if they were not manipulated so much?
