Domaine Faiveley Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2023

Domaine Faiveley Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2023 is a magnificent Chardonnay offering aromas of ripe peach, lemon curd, baked apple, acacia blossom, toasted hazelnut, brioche, and flinty minerality. Powerful yet impeccably balanced, it delivers remarkable concentration, vibrant acidity, luxurious texture, and an exceptionally long, age-worthy finish.

Food Pairing: Pair with butter-poached lobster, turbot, foie gras, roasted Bresse chicken, truffle risotto, or aged Comte for an extraordinary Grand Cru Burgundy pairing.

98 Points - James Suckling

A mind-blowing chardonnay with gigantic stony intensity and creamy richness. When the mineral freshness kicks in, it leaves you completely stunned. Delicate candied-citrus and fresh hazelnut flavors cascade over you in the incredibly long finish. Fermented and matured in 50% new oak barriques and 50% once-used barriques. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

94 Points Wine Spectator

Reliant on the oak for the time being, this white also boasts peach, apple, lemon cake, citronella and floral notes. Give this a little time to absorb the vanilla and toast flavors. Shows fine length, with the kaleidoscopic aftertaste revealing its potential. Best from 2028 through 2040. 60 cases made, 12 cases imported.
