The 1989 Batard-Montrachet offers up an interesting nose of vanillin, mint, butter, peach, and apricot fruit. In the mouth, there is awesome concentration. As good as this wine is, I am not convinced it is any better than the Chassagne-Montrachet-Les Ruchottes. Long, with good acidity and plenty of buttery fruit, this big, lusty, hefty Batard should drink gorgeously after another 3-4 years in the cellar.
Sooner or later most white burgundy lovers make the pilgrimage to the village of Chassagne-Montrachet and pay a visit to the Domaine Ramonet. Legendary wines frequently emerge from these cellars and for that reason, only the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti's Montrachet sells for a higher price than that of Ramonet. However, other wines in their portfolio often make a more sensible purchase.
