VM 90-93 (9/2016): Less exotic on the nose than the Petits Charrons, with a mineral element lifting the aromas of lemon oil and flowers. A sappy, rocky, chalky style with a flavor of bergamot orange. Harmonious acidity gives the middle palate a silky texture. Finishes firm-edged and long. A lovely Meursault in the making. Stephen Tanzer.
BH 90-92 (6/2017): This is the first wine to display noticeable exotic characters on the ripe white fruit liqueur-like aromas that are laced with hints of viognier and citrus zest. The powerful yet caressing big-bodied flavors possess Outstanding mid-palate concentration yet there is no sense of heaviness to the balanced and structured finish. Drink 2023+. |

WA 95 (10/2015): Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2012 tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Chevalier Montrachet la Cabotte Grand Cru from Bouchard Père & Fils has a slightly more exotic bouquet within this flight with touches of white chocolate and almond originating from the more generous and conspicuous use of new oak. It needs time to fully integrated. The palate is concentrated and lightly honeyed, the acidity nicely judged but there is a nagging feeling that it was picked a little too late, reminiscent of some of those 2006s on the finish that is missing some delineation. Returning to the glass it actually becomes more refined and elegant, with a saline tang on the finish. This must represent one of Bouchard's finest contributions to the vintage.
BH 94 (6/2014): ( Bouchard has been separately vinifying this parcel, which at one time was part of Montrachet, since 1992 though the first commercial release was not until 1997; Prost jokingly refers to this parcel as "Montrachet du haute pente", or upper slope Montrachet.) A reserved nose is pure, cool and airy with its notes of spiced pear, citrus blossom and mineral reduction. There is genuinely striking intensity to the gorgeously detailed medium-bodied flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the driving and explosively persistent finish. This is a very powerful and concentrated effort that should offer terrific upside development potential and easily last for two decades. Drink 2022+. Don't miss! |

| BH 89 (2/2011): A pretty and fruity is somewhat simple nose of very ripe orchard fruit and resin is in keeping with the round, forward and very supple flavors that possess fine length on the appealingly textured finish. It's possible that this will develop more depth with bottle age but given how forward the flavors are already, it doesn't have a lot of time in which to do so. Drink 2013+. |

| |
| WA 89-91 (12/2017): The 2016 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Champ Gains, matured in up to 35% new oak, was showing a touch of reduction on the nose like the En Remilly, although it was far easier to discern the intense citrus and Granny Smith apple scents underneath. The palate is well balanced with a fine line of acidity, lightly honeyed fruit, not a complex Champs Gain but one endowed with nascent energy and there is a pleasant prickle of spice on the finish. Give this a couple of years in barrel to show what it can do. |

| VM 88-90 (1/2019): The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Charmes, which comes from 1.80-hectares of vine, matures in 25% new oak. It offers hints of white flower and brioche on the nose that gently unfolds in the glass. The palate certainly has more tension and a sense of energy compared to the Puligny Village, with good salinity and a light spiciness towards the finish. This is worth seeking out. Neal Martin. |

There is both good energy and volume to the moderately concentrated medium weight flavors that offer acceptable depth on the attractively energetic finish. Drink 2023+. |

| BH 91 (9/2010): (Narvaux; Coche bottles a few different cuvees of Meursault villages, normally noting the lieu-dit only on the back label; this wine was bought by the U.S. importer) Peach and white flowers on the nose; a real essence of Meursault perfume. Then creamy-rich and sweet, with soft citrus flavors dominating. Finishes with lovely lingering sweetness of fruit. Ridiculously sexy village wine. Stephen Tanzer. |

Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrieres Lightly Wrinkled Label |

BH 94 (5/2010): A wonderfully penetrating nose with knife-like delineation offers nots of white flowers, hazelnut and pear that are followed by precise flavors dripping with minerality and knockout intensity that builds from the mid-palate and continues on to the long, dynamic and harmonious finish. This is undeniably of grand cru quality and while this has larged arrived at its apogee, it will clearly age effortlessly for years. Note that except for one bottle in the big Perrières tasting that displayed a touch of oxidation, I have otherwise had very good luck with this wine. Drink now+.
VM 94-96 (10/2001): Highly aromatic nose of lime, lemon, orange oil and minerals, along with a hint of oak char. Very dense, tactile and rich; thoroughly ripe but uncompromisingly dry. The wine great thickness is leavened by strong minerality. Outstanding slow-mounting finish hints at citrus fruits, minerals and flowers. A great Perrieres.
WS 92 (6/2002): Elegant and intense. Lovely caramel, spice, toasted notes and lots of ripe fruit, including some tropical and papaya notes. Quite intense on the long-lingering finish, with a dried herb character. Best from 2004 through 2010. 448 cases made.
WA 86-89 (2/2001): The demure aromas of the 1999 Meursault Perrieres reveal hints of stones and minerals. Light to medium-bodied and detailed, this is a delicate, elegant wine. Its nuanced flavors, mostly freshly cut flowers and minerals, are rather shy, yet subtle and exquisite. Projected maturity: now-2007. |

| BH 89-92 (6/2018): (from 4 parcels that measure <2 ha.) Here too the natural elegance of Puligny is in evidence with ripe yet airy aromas of both white and yellow peach, pear and acacia blossom. Rich, round and plump medium-weight flavors possess an almost oily texture along with lovely intensity and drive on the lightly mineral-inflected finish. Apart from the nose, this isn't as refined as it usually is but I like the depth and persistence. Drink 2021+. |

| BH 89 (6/2018): (from a .70 ha holding in Ez Crets and Les Places.) An overtly exotic nose combines notes of grapefruit and mandarin orange with those of resin and soft floral wisps. The round, delicious and attractively vibrant medium weight flavors terminate in an almost chewy finish that is presently a bit clipped and short. The underlying material appears to be of good quality and my sense is that this will ultimately harmonize with a few years of bottle age. Drink 2021+. |

WA 92-94 (1/2019): The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières offers up a beautiful bouquet of ripe citrus fruit, acacia honey, crushed chalk and praline. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with lovely concentration and a sense of completeness, concluding with a vibrant, saline finish.
VM 91-93 (9/2018): Pale yellow. Restrained aromas of white peach flesh and wild herbs, plus a rocky nuance. More concentrated and savory than the village example, with a touch of floral sweetness supported by saline mineral energy. Most impressive today on the bracing, rising, stony finish, where the calcaire soil already shines through. Very promising. Stephen Tanzer. |

BH 94 (5/2010): A supremely elegant nose of white flower and limestone notes are followed by sweet, pungently mineral and ultra precise middle weight flavors that offer simply incredible focus with an almost painfully intense, stunningly long finish. This has just now arrived on the front edge of its peak drinkability though some may prefer a few more years in the cellar first. In sum, this is really lovely juice that should age gracefully for several decades. Drink now+.
VM 94+ (10/2004): Complex, precise aromas of lime blossom, peach and wet stone. Wonderfully sweet, thick flavors of pineapple, white flowers and crushed stone, given superb lift by lively acidity and firm mineral spine. Finishes very long and tactile, with a chewy lingering flavor of crushed stone. "This is always low in acidity, along with the Folatieres," notes Morey, "but the minerality gives the wine its spinal column."
WA 93-96 (2/2004): Gorgeous aromas of minerals, gravel, and spices are found in the big, rich, opulent 2002 Chevalier-Montrachet. Medium-bodied and velvety-textured, this lush, spicy wine coats the palate with layers of toasted minerals, honey, and pears. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2015. |

| BH 89-91 (6/2018): (from several different lieux-dits, 30% of which is from Brélance with major contributions from Les Tremblots and Grands Champs.) A discreet application of wood easily allows the aromas of acacia blossom, lavender, citrus and the essence of white-fleshed fruit to be appreciated. The caressing and quite refined flavors exude a subtle salinity on the refreshing, firm and sneaky long finale. This should make for a very fine villages with a few years of cellaring. Drink 2023+.

|
| |
| BH 90-93 (6/2019): (Leflaive is the largest holder of Clavoillon with a whopping 4.8 ha parcel that averages 40+ years of age.) An overtly citrus-infused nose offers up notes of relatively elegant green apple, lavender and soft jasmine tea wisps. There is notably better subtly to the agreeable textured flavors that are notably finer than they usually are, all wrapped in a sappy, delicious, complex and focused finale. This could be approached young but should also merit up to a decade in a cool cellar. Drink 2025+. |

The bright acidity beautifully frames an impressively long finish and this presents itself as a classic Folatières. This is really very fine and classy. I like the style of this immensely. |

|

BH 90 (6/2018): Once again there is a whisper of matchstick character to the more floral aromas of Granny Smith apples and essence of lavender. The sleek and intense lighter weight flavors possess an almost delicate, indeed lilting, mouth feel yet there is plenty of punch and minerality on the citrus, clean, very dry and youthfully austere finale. This too is terrific. Drink 2022+. Outstanding Top Value!
VM 90 (9/2018): (from a normal yield of at least 45 hectoliters per hectare, according to Marion Javillier; aged in 30% new oak): Good citrussy lift to the nuanced aromas of tangy lime, fresh apricot and caraway seed. Very suave and nicely balanced, with refined flavors of citrus fruits, peach, hazelnut and spices supported by a firm spine of minerality. Good high-altitude energy here, and a persistent soil-driven aftertaste. Stephen Tanzer. |

Le Montrachet Grand Cru Lightly Bin-Soiled Label |
$5,000 |

|
| |
WA 99 (2/1992): Not surprisingly, this is another awesome example from the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti. If pure, honeyed thickness and glycerin are what you are looking for, there is not a more concentrated Chardonnay produced in the world. The only thing I have ever seen from the new world that approaches a wine such as this in nectar-like richness were the 1978 and 1980 Chalone, but that winery has now resorted to making much lighter, more commercially-oriented products. There is nothing commercial about this 1989 Montrachet. If you have $500 to spend, here is a bottle that will offer an awesome nose of honeyed, buttery, apple fruit, intertwined with aromas of smoked nuts and toasty new oak. In the mouth, it is almost greasy because of its extraordinary viscosity, thickness, and richness. The finish is explosive, and while the alcohol must be over 14.5%, it cannot be detected because of the wine's phenomenal concentration. This wine may merit a perfect score in 5-10 years, but currently, it is slightly less ethereal than the 1986 was at a similar period in its evolution.
WS 98 (11/1995): A powerful, graceful, supple and elegant Burgundy. This cascades its sweet, honeyed, spicy pear and green apple flavors over a silky, beautifully-crafted frame. The finish lingers forever. Sensational already, but try to wait until 1999 or 2000. |

|

| BH 92 (2/2011): There is still a trace of mild reduction that only marginally detracts from the appeal of the otherwise pretty aromas of acacia blossom, spiced pear and wet stone aromas. The delicious, gorgeously elegant and pure flavors possess a silky palate impression on the concentrated, explosive and stunningly long finish that seems to be composed of liquid rock. This classy example doesn't quite have the precision of the Charmes though the length is certainly most impressive. We'll see how this develops but for now, I would rank this just below the Charmes in terms of overall quality. Drink 2015+. Outstanding! |

| VM 88+ (9/2008): Very ripe aromas of apricot, baked bread, truffle and smoke. Opulent, round and sweet, with ripe acidity giving shape to the mid-palate. A bit disjointed today on the back end, with some alcohol cutting off the fruit, but ultimately displays more nervosite than the Vireuils. (The late-picked Luchets, though undeniably fat, showed rather aggressive, honeyed fruit, strong alcohol and low acidity, and was short on precision and class.) Give this a year or two in bottle to harmonize. Stephen Tanzer. |

WA 92 (9/2011): The 2009 Meursault Mes Chevaux literally covers the palate with fruit. This is another stunning wine at the village level. Slate, crushed rocks and all things mienrall buffer the fruit in this complex, multi-dimensional wine. The sheer purity here is striking. Anticipated maturity: 2012+.
BH 89-91 (2/2011): Here the reduction is strong enough to hide what appears to be very ripe fruit. There is by contrast good freshness and punch to the beautifully detailed and intense middle weight flavors that possess a textured, precise and well-balanced finish. This is an excellent villages and worth a look. Outstanding! Drink: 2014+.
VM 87-90 (10/2010): Musky white peach and vanilla on the nose. Supple, pure and easygoing, with good density to its peach and spice flavors. This stylish Meursault comes in at just under 13% alcohol. |

Otherwise there is excellent richness to the dense and muscular medium weight plus flavors that flash evident minerality on the markedly dry but not really austere finish. This will need a few years of bottle age to eat its wood treatment and to better develop more depth but that should occur over the next 6 to 8 years. Drink 2023+. |

|
| |
BH 92-95 (6/2019): (also from a full 1 ha parcel of 50+ year old vines that saw 40% new wood.) An admirably cool yet ripe nose offers up notes of white peach, honeysuckle, wet stone and soft spice nuance. The impressively-scaled, rich, full-bodied and palate staining broad-shouldered flavors brim with dry extract that does an excellent job of buffering the very firm acid spine shaping the wonderfully complex and lingering finish. This beauty is perhaps a bit more muscular than usual for a classic Combettes but the natural finesse is still present. Excellent. Drink 2029+. Sweet Spot Outstanding!
VM 92-94 (9/2018): Bright, light yellow. More complex and soil-driven on the nose than the Champ-Canet, hinting at stone fruits, iodiney minerality and hazelnut. Lovely plush, seamless wine with a sexy sweetness to its flavors of peach, flowers and minerals. There's an element of creaminess here that's nicely supported by harmonious acidity and minerality. Finishes with subtly, building spicy length and very good grip. Stephen Tanzer. |

| BH 91-93 (6/2019): A pure, restrained and markedly cool nose reluctantly reveals notes of mineral reduction, spice and plenty of floral influence, in particular acacia and lavender. The slightly more sophisticated middle weight flavors brim with minerality on the focused, intense and driving finish. This beauty is firm but not really austere and should drink well after only 5-ish years though it will probably require most of a decade to arrive at its apogee. Drink 2025+. Outstanding! |

BH 94 (7/2009): A wonderfully refined, elegant and remarkably complex nose of honeysuckle, peach, pear and citrus that is also ever-so-vaguely exotic in character is set off by subtle notes of brioche before merging into sophisticated, pure, powerful, concentrated and silky flavors that are understated at present, all wrapped in a hugely long finish of simply stunning intensity. As good as the Corton-Charlemagne and Demoiselles are, this is a small but clear step up. Drink: 2014+.
WA 91-92 (12/2008): The 2006 Montrachet (from purchased grapes) is the ripest and most exotic wine in this year’s Latour collection. Musk, lily, and over-ripe peach and pear aromas usher in a sumptuous, creamy, yet juicy palate. The finish here preserves all of the decadent floral and over-ripe fruit character while introducing an intensely pungent amalgam of citrus zest, toasted nuts, wood smoke, and crushed stone. As with this year’s Chevalier Demoiselles, there is a bit of heat here but it does not seriously intrude nor preclude clarity in the finish. |

BH 91-93 (7/2006): A background note of pain grillé frames ultra pure and perfumed high-toned aromas redolent of white flower and wet stone that reappears on the hallmark dry extract-infused flavors that are almost aggressive in their intense minerality, all wrapped in a powerful and exceptionally long finish. This has that extra dimension of the 'wow factor' going for it. In short, very impressive. Drink 2011+. Sweet Spot Outstanding!
VM 90-92 (8/2006): (sugar fermentation finished, malo almost complete) Nose dominated by crushed stone and lemon; precise and vineyard-typical for 2005. Dense and fat with fruit, showing the sweetness of the vintage in spades. Very promising but can't quite match the 2004 for precision or length. (The superripe Genevrieres was in the middle of its malolactic fermentation.) |

| WA 95+ (1/2020): The 2018 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is showing brilliantly, unwinding in the glass with aromas of crisp orchard fruit, honeycomb, white flowers, orange oil and wheat toast. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample and muscular, with lively acids and an impressively structured, introverted profile for the vintage, concluding with a long, saline finish. |

| WA 95 (1/2020): The most youthfully reserved wine in the cellar was the 2018 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, a promising bottling that opens up to reveal scents of citrus zest, dried white flowers, green apple and pastry cream. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with racy acids and prodigious levels of searingly chalky dry extract that lend this wine incredible structure. |
