92 WA "This estate makes a whopping 10 barrels, or 250 cases, of Batard-Montrachet. The 1998 reveals tropical fruit aromas, intermingled with hints of English toffee. Rich, plum, and thick, this medium to full-bodied, pear, apple, vanilla, and buttered toast-flavored wine is concentrated, fresh, and intense. "

Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
