This 2022 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, crafted from 100% Chardonnay, is a powerful yet elegant expression of white Burgundy. On the nose, expect a complex bouquet of ripe orchard fruits like pear and green apple, intertwined with citrus zest, white flowers, toasted hazelnut, and buttery brioche notes from oak aging. A pronounced minerality, reminiscent of wet stone or flint, underscores the aromatic profile. The palate is full-bodied and concentrated, showcasing impressive depth and structure. High, vibrant acidity balances the wine’s richness, leading to a long, persistent finish with saline and mineral undertones that promise excellent aging potential.
