    The wine

    Le Criots-Bâtard Montrachet is the smallest of the three grand cru vineyards in the commune of Chassagne-Montrachet (at just 1.56 hectares). 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.
