Light yellow color. Aromas of winter pears, vanilla custard, honeysuckle and minerals. Ripe, beautifully structured rich fruit in the mouth with great depth and a long, palate coating finish. I was anxious to try this controversial wine ( based on the CellarTracker reviews) and was not disappointed! I purchased the wine directly from the importer 8 years ago and it has been cellared since. The wine showed no signs of oxidation or excess sulphur at 12 years of age. This powerful yet elegant wine was every bit a great Batard Montrachet.

Big and rich, slightly bitter finish, beginning to show its age but still drinking well.

Drank at Noize
Beautiful balanced palate. More like a Chevalier than a Batard

Very similar to the 3/15/14 bottle except a touch more persistent and complex on the palate and a trace of oxidation.
