Note di degustazione
The 2017 Montrachet Grand Cru is a very pretty, understated Montrachet that reminds me of years like 2001 and 2004, where the wine is built on elegance and finesse more than on opulence. Orchard fruit, tangerine peel, flowers, chamomile and tropical accents all grace this exquisite, utterly beguiling Montrachet. Today, the 2017 is quite reticent, but it is a noble reticence. I can’t wait to see how it ages. Even in the early going, the 2017 is exceptional. It is one of my favorite Montrachets of the decade. Harvest took place on September 7.

Aromas of crisp green pear, citrus oil, mandarin, fresh pastry, clear honey and oak vanillin introduce the 2017 Montrachet Grand Cru, a full-bodied, deep and textural wine that's voluminous and powerful but incisive, with racy structuring acids and a long, chalky and elegantly honeyed finish. "If we had tried to conceive of the ideal Montrachet, we might have imagined something like this," admits Bertrand de Villaine, and the 2017 certainly numbers among the finest renditions of this iconic bottling over the last decade and beyond.
