Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru Verget 1992
The wine
A Bâtard-Montrachet with aromas of white-fleshed fruit and citrus fruit and buttery notes. Remarkably rich and concentrated on the palate, it has real depth, a hint of freshness, much sapidity and great purity.
About the Producer Verget
The brilliant wine-maker Jean-Marie Guffens is behind Maison Verget which produces wines from grapes sourced across Burgundy but predominately from Mâconnais. This company created in 1990 in Sologny brings together all the wines of the trading business, with a superb range of appellations, from Chablis to Mâconnais, to highlight the specificities and nuances of each terroir.
The wines have acquired a solid reputation for their diamond-polished characteristics which are always very pure as well as being both rich and taut at the same time. The grapes are sourced from exemplary partner wineries and the winemaking and maturation processes are conduction with the same precision. A safe bet in Burgundy, Jean-Marie Guffens-Heynen is a Master in the art of Chardonnay. Since 2012, the brilliant oenologist Julien Desplans has joined him as a cellar master. Trained at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, he takes the company to new heights, helping it win the award “Trading Business of the Year” in 2020 from the French wine magazine La Revue du vin de France.
