Batard Montrachet 2009 Domaine Blain-Gagnard

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (95)

The 2009 Batard-Montrachet is a big wine. Today it shows its broad shoulders and structure, but also comes across as less obvious than the Criots, suggesting it has begun to shut down in bottle. There is plenty of finesse and personality in the glass, but this is a wine whose best days are still at least a few years away. Nevertheless, it is impossible to miss the wine’s exceptional harmony, laser-like focus and promise.

The fruit character is more candied in this white, along with butterscotch and pastry notes. Promises more up front than it delivers on the finish, at least for now.
