We started with a lobster dinner paired with the 2000 Latour Batard Montrachet, followed by 10 blind flights. We finished with the Veuve Rose non-blind. The affordable wines seemed to win the night!
2000 Louis Latour Bâtard-Montrachet 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru
Started the night with lobster dinner. This is drinking very well right now. All the characteristics of a muscular big Batard. Rich deep yellow color. Nose loaded with fruit, butter, vanilla and brown sugar. Powerful and smooth on the palate, full bodied and rich. Faded slightly on the mid-palate and finish, which is why this is a 91 and not a 93+. Very nice.
