Score 87-89/100 · Drink 2005-2011, Pierre Rovani, Jun 2003

Creamed spices can be found in the nose of the 2001 Bienvenue-Batard-Montrachet. This wine’s future quality will depend on whether it fleshes out as it finishes elevage. If so, it may well deserve an outstanding score. Light to medium-bodied, it reveals loads of minerals and quartz-like flavors in its pure, crystalline, tightly-wound personality. It has lovely concentration, length, and depth yet remains compressed and ungenerous. Projected maturity: 2005-2011.

(Noel refers to this wine as Brigitte Bardot) Musky aromas of lime, mint, flowers and grilled herbs. Dense and chewy but light on its feet. A very complex wine of considerable finesse. There nothing aggressive about this grand cru.
