Bienvenues Bâtard Montrachet, Grand Cru, 2023
justerini & brooks tasting note
A most Puligny like Grand Cru. This is the Domaine’s oldest vineyard, planted in 1940 and its smallest production.

The 2023 Bienvenue-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a wonderful mineral-driven yet understated bouquet unfolding in the glass with subtle oyster shell/crustacean scents. The palate is beautifully balanced with a keen thread of acidity that slices through the more malic fruit profile. Very harmonious with a judicious dab of spice on the finish, this is a marvelous follow-up to the 2022.
