A touch fatter than the 2010 BBM side by side... and a touch less complete than the Batard 14 on the other side. Yet, still an immensely enjoyable chard that stand-alone would have been sensational.

Grand Cru White Burgundy Fest: Young and fresh. A bit light on the finish, but quite lovely. I think many 14s have been in a shut down phase lately, just not quite showing all their latent power.

Very pretty nose with good intensity, a bit of flint, lemon, and citrus notes. Nice acidity with bright fruit, anis, lemon, and rocks on the palate. Long finish. Excellent wine that feels a bit brighter but also more backwards compared to the Batard Montrachet next to it. Interesting to see how different the two vineyards show. I would drink the BM now and let this rest for a bit longer. 94++

Needs a lot of air but beautiful reduction closer in style to the more recent vintages. White fruit, sesame, mineral, striking cut, weight and concentration. 94-95

A perfect balance of the 2010 and 2011 that were served alongside. Very good.
