Note di degustazione
The 2021 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has quite a heavy reduction on the nose, although it seems proportionate to the fruit behind it. The palate is quite reductive but there is balance here, a silver thread of acidity lightly spiced with a dab of stem ginger and lemongrass towards the finish. This has more character and energy than Olivier Leflaive's Bâtard and I am intrigued to see how it will age in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Germain produced two barrels of the 2021 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, a lovely wine that delivers aromas of mandarin orange, pear, buttery pastry and waxy lemon rind, followed by a full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate that's layered and concentrated, with a deep core of fruit underpinned by racy acids.
The 2021 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is more expressive on the nose than the Bienvenue with more terroir expression and complexity. The palate is also more agreeable: better balance and more finesse, quite pretty with a harmonious and persistent finish. This is very promising.
