Batard Montrachet Louis Jadot(2005)

Moderate oak frames more reserved white flower and acacia blossom aromas that introduce round, rich and sumptuous full-bodied flavors that possess a suave mouth feel because there is dry extract here to burn and this extract confers an almost thick but not heavy palate impression on the imposingly persistent finish. Like the Bâtard, this is presently almost painfully intense and should age well.

A ripe and highly expressive nose features a complex mix of pretty white flower and orchard fruit aromas that merge into unusually linear and precise flavors that are extremely rich, wonderfully powerful, taut and muscular with exceptional length and almost painful intensity. While this is not as concentrated as some wines in the range, what I like about the wine though is the impeccable balance and detail, which is relatively rare in classic examples of Bâtard. Built to age.
