Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru Blain-Gagnard (Domaine) 2021

The wine

Lying below the vineyards of Le Montrachet, le Bâtard Montrachet is considered to be one of the finest white wines in the world. Pale gold in colour, this wine darkens to yellow gold and develops an exceptionally powerful bouquet. It is rich and complex with aromas of lemon, butter, almond, honey and spices. An intense creaminess characterises this majestic cru.

About the Producer Blain-Gagnard
