Domaine Bachelet-Monnot - Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru - 2021

Pale lemon yellow. An immediate class here, the fruit showing its intensity beneath a lightly reductive covering. Class, purity and even intensity, this Bâtard of which alas there is but a single barrel, ticks all the boxes. A lemongrass note adds a touch of complexity to a brilliantly pure white fruit palate. Great persistence. For the medium plus term, but a gorgeous wine in the making. Alexandre tells me that his brother Marc thinks that this is one of their best ever! He may be right. Drink from 2028-2038. 96-98 Points (5-Stars) Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
