2022 Batard-Montrachet, Thomas Morey

A cool, elegant and wonderfully spicy nose of mostly citrus, pear and acacia blossom is trimmed in just enough wood to notice. I very much like the mouthfeel of the seductive and refined larger-scaled flavors that also brim with sappy dry extract on the clean, markedly dry and impressively long finale. This is very clearly built-to-age and a Bâtard that's going to need at least a decade to reach its apogee. Excellent. ~ (94) Allen Meadows, Burghound 6-10-2024
