The Grand Cru Bâtard-Montrachet has the largest area of the 5 “Montrachets” with just under 12 hectares. He is considered to be the luscious type with exotic notes and a slightly floral scent, on the palate the wines have a lot of meat and spice. One of the best Chardonnay locations worldwide from one year with full-bodied and crystal clear wines.
