The 2010 Bâtard-Montrachet is pure class through and through. A silky frame supports layers of expressive, perfumed fruit as this polished wine continues to open in the glass. Floral notes flow through to the long, nuanced finish. The Bâtard is quite subtle for the vintage, but its pure refinement is impossible to miss. - VM

Here the nose is ever-so-slightly atypical as there are white pepper nuances to the otherwise more classic floral, spice and ripe pear aromas. There is excellent richness, size, weight and immense power; indeed this is steamroller-like yet there is absolutely no heaviness. In fact, while the intensity is remarkable, the citrusy and bone dry finish is linear to the point of being angular. As such, this will definitely need significant cellar time to unwind and broaden. - BH
