Le Montrachet, Grand Cru, Marquis de Laguiche, 2009
The result of seven “tries” through the vineyards and seven vinifications blended together, this is a wine of towering elegance, richness and force, sophisticated flavours of butter, stone, mineral, dried flower and acacia, silky but tense, too, long haunting flavours that resound around the empty glass. Breathtaking.
critic reviews
The 2009 Montrachet Grand Cru is now beginning to flex its muscles. It was an “easy vintage,” according to Véronique Drouhin, cropped at 20hl/ha from September 15. Appearance-wise, it is similar to the 2011. The bouquet is surprisingly tight at first but then opens its arms with just a few swirls of the glass, offering heady scents of honeysuckle and yellow flowers and a touch of crushed pebble underneath. The palate boasts impressive precision considering the warmth of the growing season. Wonderful penetration and drive are evident here. Grilled walnut and nutmeg emerge toward the finish. Just superb. Tasted at the Montrachet vertical in London.
