Tasting notes
From a parcel in the celebrated Clos Poirier, which touches le Montrachet, Morey's 2019 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru mingles notes of orange oil and pear with hints of blanched almonds, dried white flowers, beeswax and struck match. Full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's rich and concentrated, with a deep, textural core, lively acids and a bright, saline finish. As usual, readers should note that this wine is identical to the Bâtard-Montrachet released under the Morey-Blanc label.

The 2019 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, which is labeled under Morey Blanc and domaine, has a very intense bouquet of yellow plum, honeysuckle and crushed stone. The palate is very well balanced with powerful, slightly honeyed fruit and touches of white peach and tangy tangerine. It builds convincingly in the mouth to a very persistent finish.
