Tasting notes
The 2019 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru offers up aromas of pear, orange oil, warm bread, white flowers and praline. Full-bodied, textural and muscular, it's rich and powerful, with a deep and fleshy core, succulent acids and a long, resonant finish. This broad-shouldered, gastronomic Bâtard will be at its best with a bit of bottle age.

The 2019 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru for the second year running has no new oak. It has a beautifully defined bouquet with citrus peel, Clementine, lemon verbena and light limestone aromas. This is wonderfully focused and intense. The palate is well balanced with a saline entry, taut and crisp with a flinty opening, then slams down the shutters towards the finish as if to say, how rude it is to be assessed at this stage (fair enough). So give this 5-6 years in bottle because there's a killer wine waiting for you.
