Note di degustazione
The 1999 Bienvenue-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru from Domaine Leflaive is astonishingly reductive on the nose. You might yell “Coche”, but frankly, the nose must articulate the place where it comes from and here, well, it is rendered a generic reduced nose. That is a shame because its quality shines through on the palate: tight and saline with vivid malic notes, it gains plenty of weight on the finish. The reduction does ebb a little after an hour but it detracts from an otherwise very fine Grand Cru.

Rich almond aromas emerge from the 1999 Bienvenue-Batard-Montrachet. Medium-bodied and oily-textured, it is ample, plump, and has excellent grip. Its flavor profile, composed of white and yellow fruits intermingled with nuts, lasts throughout the finish. Importer: Wilson-Daniels, St. Helena, CA; (707) 963-9661.
