Note di degustazione
The 2017 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has also turned out brilliantly, mingling notes of peach, pear and honeycomb with nuances of beeswax, warm bread and orange oil. Full-bodied, multidimensional and textural, it's a powerful, muscular wine that's concentrated and satiny without being unctuous, balanced by racy acids. Long and penetrating, this is worth a special effort to seek out.

Pale straw-yellow. Deeper-pitched on the nose than the Bienvenue, offering scents of yellow fruits, earth and clove; one can smell the flesh here. Very rich, tactile and smooth, conveying a strong impression of dry extract to its yellow orchard fruit and spice flavors. The wine's greater thickness of texture is leavened by firm supporting acidity. With its serious weight and structural underpinning, this slightly saline wine will need several years of bottle aging. The yield here was about 40 hectoliters per hectare, according to Benoît Riffault.
