There's only a half-barrel of the 2016 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, but it's shaping up to be a superb wine, revealing aromas of honey, white flowers, toasted nuts and petrol. On the palate, it's as full-bodied, chewy and concentrated as ever, with huge depth and extract and a long, saline finish. It's being matured in a used feuillette, so it hasn't been overwhelmed with new oak.
