Note di degustazione
The 2015 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru from Henri Boillot is a dramatic, powerful rendition of the 2015 vintage, offering up notes of ripe peach, tangerine oil, toasted nuts, iodine and wheat toast. On the palate, the wine is glossy, textural and full-bodied, with almost chewy extract and considerable amplitude, kept in check by succulent acids. Gourmand and generous, this is a classic Bâtard-Montrachet.

(13.3% alcohol without chaptalization): Medium yellow, a bit paler than the Clos de la Mouchère. Complex but reticent aromas of stone and soft citrus fruits, menthol and minerals. Plush and thick but sappy, even penetrating; not at all a fat or heavy style of Bâtard, thanks no doubt to early picking. Boasts excellent definition to its stone fruit and saline mineral flavors. Finishes tactile, powerful and very long, slightly aggressive but not hot. This wine needs--and should repay--several years of bottle aging.
(50% new oak): Deep, musky aromas of very ripe stone fruits and clove. Silky-sweet in the mouth, showing sexy leesy notes of hazelnut and smoke and excellent salty extract but less obvious oakiness than the Criots and the Bienvenue. This powerful yet suave Batard finishes smooth and vibrant, with a repeating note of clove and terrific saline persistence.
