Bienvenue Batard Montrachet 1998 Louis Carillon

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (92)

As we approached the estate's barrel of Bienvenue-Batard-Montrachet, Jacques Carillon looked up at me and said, "The 1998 vintage is richer in Bienvenue, you'll see."

It exhibits awesome aromas of pears, peaches, roasted stones, buttered toast, and anise. Medium to full-bodied and thick, it coats the palate with layers and layers of velvety, sweet white fruits, and hints of coffee and grilled oak. Lush and immensely flavorful, this wine would have bowled me over if it had possessed a more substantial finish.
