Note di degustazione
The 2018 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru opens in the glass with aromas of pear, citrus oil, white flowers, iodine and toast. Full-bodied, layered and fleshy, it's round and textural, with an enveloping core of fruit, lively balancing acids and a long, mineral finish. As is routinely the case, this is one of the finest wines in the Sauzet range.

The 2018 Bienvenue-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru comes from a small parcel abutting Les Pucelles, planted in 1936. It has a pleasant floral bouquet, although to be honest it is a bit overwhelmed by some of Sauzet’s high-performing Premier Crus. The palate is strict and focused with a fine bead of acidity. Fresh and malic in style, yet not quite flowering or kicking on toward the conservative finish.
There are two and a half barrels of the 2018 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, which comes from a parcel planted in 1936. Blossoming in the glass with aromas of citrus oil, crisp yellow orchard fruit, buttered toast and fresh apricots, it's full-bodied, deep and layered, with lively acids and appreciable structuring dry extract. This is very promising. (WK) 94-96
