The 2014 Le Montrachet Grand Cru (from the Chassagne side) does not quite have the precision of the Batard-Montrachet on the nose: touches of lemon thyme and Granny Smith apple and a mote of chalk dust. The palate is a different proposition and puts matters in order; it is more refined on the nose and with nicely integrated oak. It is more reserved than the Batard-Montrachet, quite Zen-like but at least at this early juncture, just missing a little depth towards the finish, something merely highlighted by the Batard-Montrachet.
