Drouhin-Batard Montachet-2006-750ml-Standard-White-Burgundy-France
Tasting Notes
| Allen Meadows, Burghound 93 |
| This is much more reserved and brooding while only grudgingly giving up pure white flower and spice aromas though the serious, rich, full and strikingly powerful flavors possess excellent depth of dry extract and huge length on the detailed, focused, palate staining and explosive finish. This is an impressive Bātard as everything necessary is here and this should age extremely well. |
| Steve Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 90 |
| Expressive, slightly exotic nose combines peach, apricot, pineapple and sweet oak scents. A fat, sweet fruit bomb with apricot, nutmeg and buttery pastry flavors. Comes across as less minerally and gripping than the Corton-Charlemagne or Meursault Perrieres; in fact, this strikes me as more chardonnay than Batard. But really coats the mouth on the back end. |
| Robert Parker 91 |
| 'From purchased juice, the Drouhin 2006 Batard-Montrachet smells decadently rich with musk, over-ripe peach, lime candy, talcum, and smoky, spicy new wood. With impressive fat and palate persistence, it offers another instance of appealingly forward virtues if without noticeable indications of long aging potential, nor any particular grand cru finesse or mystery."
