Tasting Notes
Vinous 95
The 2021 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has quite a heavy reduction on the nose, although it seems proportionate to the fruit behind it. The palate is quite reductive but there is balance here, a silver thread of acidity lightly spiced with a dab of stem ginger and lemongrass towards the finish. This has more character and energy than Olivier Leflaive’s Bâtard and I am intrigued to see how it will age in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
Anticipated maturity: 2028-2048
