1983 Batard Montrachet

The 1983 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is a denser and broader-shouldered than Ramonet's sublime Montrachet of the same year, offering up notes of buttered orchard fruit, freshly baked bread, tangerine oil and iodine, followed by a broad, full-bodied, textural palate of impressive depth and dimension, concluding with a long, lusty finish.
