Tasting notes
The 2009 Le Montrachet, from a parcel on the Chassagne side, is fabulous. Layers of exotic, tropical fruit flow effortlessly from this broad-shouldered, kaleidoscopic wine. There is plenty of freshness in the glass to support the fruit in this magical, captivating wine. I especially like the way this turns delicate, subtle and refined on the finish.

The 2009 Le Montrachet Grand Cru offers an olfactory sensation of sitting on a Triumph motorcycle and revving it up, ready to go. It has a vibrant, captivating bouquet with tremendous vigor, candied peach, tangerine, minerals and a touch of orange zest that surface with time. The palate is powerful, as one would expect from a Montrachet, with suggestions of white chocolate, lemon rind, shaved almond and just a dab of warm alcohol toward the finish lending it weight and gravitas. This is a superb Montrachet that will give pleasure over the next three decades.
