Candied apples and lilies burst from the glass of the 2002 Batard-Montrachet. Broad, hugely spicy, and fleshy, this intense wine coats the taster’s palate with vanilla-laced flowers, pears, and ginger. It is pure, balanced, concentrated, and offers a long, expressive finish. Projected maturity: 2005-2015.
