Bottled. This smells like a grand cru: smart creamy oak not overdone, an intensity of pure fresh fruit with a touch of spice. Fruity, savoury and spicy all at once. Deep and chewy. (JH)

The 2019 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a rather terse bouquet, more saline than the Criots, touches of oyster shell coming through with time in the glass. The palate is well balanced with more weight and density than the Criots, grippy and saline with a long spicy aftertaste. This is excellent - but serious and warranting cellaring for three or four years.
