The 2017 Montrachet Grand Cru was the full stop on a long and bibulous evening, but that did not detract one jot from the quality of this wine. It has a wonderful, pure, effervescent bouquet with orange pith and touches of camphor and chamomile. The palate is very pure and delivers what you expect from this vineyard. Caressing in texture, it fans out to devastating effect, and while it may just miss earth-shattering mineralité, it is quite simply a beautiful wine in the flush of youth. Tasted at Maison de Colombière. (Neal Martin, Vinous, March 2023)

Noticeable woody notes. Too much for even me. Nice body and lift otherwise. 2017 vintage.
