A softly exotic and attractively spicy nose offers up notes of tangerine peel, jasmine tea, pear and a hint of oak. The rich and full-bodied flavors possess reasonable mid-palate concentration as well as fine length on the overtly saline-inflected, delineated and well-balanced finale. This is not as dense as it usually is (though it's certainly not dilute) but it should have no trouble amply rewarding extended cellaring.Inc. TAX€3,615.36 -

The 2017 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is slightly pale in hue and has a rather slight bouquet at first, offering fresh green apple and wet limestone aromas. I would just like more intensity, and indeed, that does develop with 10–15 minutes’ aeration. The palate is well balanced, quite saline and sappy, showing a strong marine influence, with oyster shell and crustaceans on the finish. Very fine and complex.Inc. TAX€687.55 -

More tightly wound than the Bienvenues, the 2019 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru unfurls in the glass with aromas of pear, confit citrus, fresh pastry, nutmeg, hazelnuts and beeswax, framed by a deft touch of youthful reduction. Full-bodied, deep and tensile, with huge levels of concentration and extract, it's layered and muscular, with a seamless, structured profile and a long, saline finish.Inc. TAX€621.73 -

The 2021 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has quite a heavy reduction on the nose, although it seems proportionate to the fruit behind it. The palate is quite reductive but there is balance here, a silver thread of acidity lightly spiced with a dab of stem ginger and lemongrass towards the finish. This has more character and energy than Olivier Leflaive's Bâtard and I am intrigued to see how it will age in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€3,472.21 -

A full mid yellow, much deeper than the Bienvenues. This has all the power, and with finesse too though evidently not as much as the Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet. The Bâtard has just back from the rugby field. A good example though. 4 barrels made, of which one new. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted: November 2023.Inc. TAX€4,666.54 -

(14.1% alcohol) Bright yellow. Subdued but pure aromas of citrus and stone fruits, hazelnut and nut oils. Chewy, large-scaled and sweet, with expressive flavors of peach, apricot and nut oils. A huge wine with almost exotic sweetness and great length, as well as strong backbone. Always the highest in alcohol along with Batard and Combettes, notes Girardin.Inc. TAX€2,674.54 -

2.5 barrels made, mostly from the Chassagne side. Fair depth of yellow with real concentration but maybe stops a little shorter. Digs deep with some pear notes, a slight crystalline reduction at the finish. More depth than the Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet, but perhaps less flair. Drink from 2027-2035.Inc. TAX€2,153.11 -

(5 Star Wine) One barrel, not new. A pale primrose with a startlingly fine and pure bouquet. Magical. There is a refined yet exceptionally intense pure fruit, with a saline and citrus touch behind.

The 2023 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a fairly tight bouquet with apricot, peach skin and light waxy scents. This takes time to open in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a slightly tangy, marmalade-tinged opening, fine depth and a lovely pithy core of fruit. Judiciously spiced toward the finish, this is a very commendable BBM to enjoy over 15 to 20 years.Expected Price Range€1,427 - €1,712 -

The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Blanchot-Dessus 1er Cru come across a bit sultry on the nose despite coaxing. White flowers, fresh white linen and citrus scents eventually emerge. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, fresh and quite saline, perhaps it just need a little more complexity towards the finish, but otherwise this is well-crafted.Inc.

The 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet Blanchot-Dessus 1er Cru was one of the big (pleasant) surprises of the tasting. It has a more composed and complex bouquet compared to others in this flight, with a little more crushed stone, blood oranges and light quince aromas developing in the glass. Impressive delineation and the oak is seamlessly integrated. The palate is well balanced with a crisp line of acidity, just a dab of sour lemon and orange rind, quite peppery in style with a bravura finish.

The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Blanchot-Dessus 1er Cru has a detailed, nuanced bouquet with yellow fruit, beeswax and light crushed stone scents that are very precise.

The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet La Romanée 1er Cru is more reserved on the nose, but well defined with crushed stone and touches of pressed flowers and chai.

A lively lime inflected yellow. The nose is backward though speaks just a little of the limestone hillside. The intensity is there but I know more exciting examples. Quite good length of flavour.

The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Le Cailleret 1er Cru shows a little more reduction on the nose than the Morgeots, although there is good concentration here.

Full primrose. There is an initial richness which cannot quite hide the stones beneath, nor should it. Terrific energy at the back of the palate, more so than Romanée, with fine length and the saline touch last seen in the Perrières. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: November 2023.Inc. TAX€983.74 -

The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeots 1er Cru offers ripe pineapple, lemon and orange zest scents on the nose, a little more primal than its peers though well defined, and it opens willingly in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. There is just a thin veil of oak to be assimilated, but I appreciate the ripe almond and walnut-tinged finish that lingers in the mouth.

The 2018 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has an attractive bouquet with lemon zest, light peppermint and orange pith notes that burst from the glass. The palate is well balanced with a waxy texture, modest weight with lemon curd, lemon thyme and Clementine towards the finish. Like Girardin’s other 2018s, what it just misses is tension and delineation, but it should give a decade’s drinking pleasure. - Neal MartinInc. TAX€223.88 -

The 2021 Montrachet Grand Cru has a curious nose with yellow fruit, lemon verbena, quince and wax resin. It is shaded by the Bâtard-Montrachet to be frank. The palate is quite weighty and very phenolic; with slightly lower acidity than the Bâtard, I found myself desiring more freshness and nerve on the finish. I feel a bit short-changed given the vineyard.Inc. TAX€3,881.11 -

Two barrels made. A glowing pale lemon and lime colour. Though the barrels are not new they still lend a touch of coconut to this sublimely opulent Montrachet. The riches are properly balanced on the palate though, with waves of perfectly ripe fruit sweeping through the mouth.

Mid yellow. Fresh but ripe, even quite exotic with a lemon zest running through the middle. Very good, but meets the sunshine a little bit too evidently.

The 2019 Meursault Les Charmes-Dessus 1er Cru comes from two parcels located down from Les Perrières. The vines are 65 years old, one parcel on SO4 rootstock that is particularly low-yielding. This has a pretty bouquet, understated at first and then unfolding to reveal crushed stone and yellow flower aromas. The palate is well balanced with a smooth, slightly honeyed opening, richer than the preceding Village Crus but nicely focused. Lemon curd and a touch of stem ginger toward the finish.
