Note di degustazione
Subdued, brooding nose hints at pear, clove and nut oil. Superconcentrated, rich and deep, with compelling sweetness of apple and pear fruit perfectly balanced by powerful acids (5. 2 grams per liter, with a pH of 3. 11, according to Boillot). Offers an uncanny combination of fat, density of texture and sheer sweetness. "This needs ten years despite its great early sucrosite," notes Boillot. Finishes with outstanding palate-staining length. Another monument of the vintage.

A huge, indeed massive nose of exotic, very ripe orchard fruits, especially peach with white flowers and a hint of honey all framed in oak spice introduces full-bodied, weighty flavors displaying excellent density, depth and concentration. This is as big as the Montrachet and the length, mid-palate punch and persistence it shows is nothing short of phenomenal. Jul 2004, www.burghound.com, Drink: 2008+

Boillot’s 2002 Batard-Montrachet offers up aromas of minerals and limestone. This big, broad, medium to full-bodied wine is suave and satiny-textured. Lush layers of minerals, bacon, smoke, apples, and pears can be found in its complex, concentrated personality. This exceptional effort also reveals a long, silky, fruit-filled finish. Projected maturity: now-2014. Feb 2004, www.robertparker.com
