Lively minerals, earth, chalk, and pears can be found in the nose of the 2002 Batard-Montrachet. A medium-bodied, deep, satiny-textured wine, it is fleshy, concentrated, and reveals a long finish. Loads of pears are intermingled with gravel in its rich, expressive character. Projected maturity: 2005-2012.
