justerini & brooks tasting note

What a beauty; a seamless, elongated, relatively discreet Montrachet built from layer upon layer of fine fruit and delicate stones, touches of nut and zesty citrus. It’s not a particularly large-framed rendition, moreover it has this haunting, long, sophisticated persistence that lingers on and on in the mouth. No crystal ball required here; this is pure class. The Laguiche Montrachet parcel comprises five vineyard blocks on the northern, Puligny side bordering Puligny Caillerets. The 2022 was picked between 2nd and 5th September.

critic reviews

94-96/100William Kelley,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2022 Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche Grand Cru was harvested in three picks this year. Exhibiting aromas of pear, peach, honeycomb, toasted nuts, baking spices and buttered toast, it's full-bodied, ample and unctuous, with a richly layered core of fruit, lively acids and a long, resonant finish. Tasted from a barrel sample before an aerating racking, it displayed fine tension.
