Blockier and denser than the Criots, the 2018 Batard-Montrachet Grand
Cru unfurls in the glass with scents of honeycomb, orange oil, white
flowers and toasted nuts. Full-bodied, fleshy and textural, it's lively
and long, its rich core of fruit underpinned by ripe acids.
Broad-shouldered and expressive, this will drink well sooner than the
tighter-knit 2017.
