Bâtard-Montrachet
Grand Cru - Récolte du Domaine
The 2022 vintage brought serenity back to the vineyard with a heathy harvest and correct volumes. With rainfall accumulations far from excessive, the year 2022 was marked by average temperatures higher than seasonal norms and rainfall deficits from the start of the vine’s vegetative cycle. At the beginning of April, episodes of frost will recall the terrible nights of April 6 and 7 of 2021, but fortunately with an impact beyond measure. The year 2022 is the year of all records for sunshine with the equivalent of an additional month of July.

Tasting
Tasting note
Bâtard-Montrachet is a powerful and voluminous wine on the palate, revealing a rare complexity. It offers a texture rich in dried fruits and sappy notes, ending with a saline finish. Its slightly reductive and tense structure perfectly reflects its Puligny-Montrachet terroir.
Food pairings
Ideal with refined dishes and complex textures such as foie gras, lobster or golden sweetbreads served with a buttery and creamy sauce.
