Bâtard-Montrachet is never short of showy power, even in youth. It seems to have loved the style of 2023, and thrived in the conditions. It’s expressive, racy and driven, with great weight and texture and a fresh, salty intensity to the fruit. The finish is long, mineral and refined. An incredibly striking wine.

The 2023 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a completely seductive bouquet with hints of white peach and marron glacé on the nose, combining beautifully with the mineral and citrus scents. The palate is well balanced with a tropical-tinged entry, quite forward and very expressive again. This is perhaps the most seductive Bâtard-Montrachet that I encountered in my tastings.
Unracked. Lactic oak and coconut. An obvious concentration of fruit beneath, yet not showing detail at this stage. In the mouth, there is a massive raft of white fruit, still quite oaky though the sample is not from new wood. The racking will refine this. Marvellous length, this will make an excellent Batard with an impressive tensile strength. “It’s a block, it’s very Bâtard”, says Alex. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted Nov 2024.
