Score 91/100 · Drink 2016-2034, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Nov 2014
Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Bâtard-Montrachet 2011 courtesy of Caroline Lestimée has a refined bouquet: bashful at first but opening nicely with scents of lime flower, lemon zest and limestone that are well defined. However, it does require more coaxing than its peers. The palate is crisp and taut with fine acidity. The oak is a little pronounced at the moment, but there is sufficient fruit for it to be assimilated with another 2 or 3 years in bottle. Good potential.

Lightly smoky nose. Firm, savoury spine with suggestions of lemon oil. Chewy, rather sudden finish. (JR)
