The 2020 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a finely detailed bouquet, wonderful mineralité and tension. A touch of linden mixes with crushed rock/flint. The palate is fresh and vibrant. The acidity has a citric quality to it, and it is focused. While not the most powerful Bâtard-Montrachet, it conveys detail and precision. Sapid on the finish, if you are looking for an elegant Grand Cru then this fits the bill. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

The 2020 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru conveys more tension and mineralité on the nose than the Criots, very well defined with wet limestone mixed with citrus fruit and apple blossom. The palate is medium-bodied with fine delineation, taut and fresh with a saline finish that has a lovely edginess. With great persistent and poise, this is a very impressive Bâtard-Montrachet.
