Jean Chartron, Batard Montrachet Size:3x750ml one that defies and encompasses

one that defies and encompasses its year

both Merlots are stunning

This is a wine that could actually be enjoyed young though I would advise holding it for another 5 to 7 years first

The soils are poor in organic substances

Always a standout wine

Jean Chartron, Batard Montrachet Size:3x750ml one that defies and encompasses(from a . 13 ha parcel on the Puligny side). Slightly riper aromas include those of both yellow and white peach, poached pear and a broad array of spice nuances, all of which is again trimmed in just enough wood to notice. There is fine intensity to the larger scaled, if not especially dense, flavors that still flash ample power on the clean and dry finale that is sufficiently tightly wound to repay a decade, perhaps even a bit longer, of aging.
