An extraordinary expression of Grand Cru Burgundy, offering breathtaking complexity with aromas of white peach, toasted hazelnut, and fresh brioche layered over honeysuckle and crushed limestone minerality. On the palate, the wine delivers extraordinary tension between rich, creamy texture and laser-sharp acidity, with flavors of poached pear, white truffle, and salted butter. The finish is phenomenally long, precise, and stony, lingering with extraordinary persistence.

About this wine
Domaine D'Auvenay's Bâtard-Montrachet is a Grand Cru white Burgundy from the Côte de Beaune, made entirely from Chardonnay grown within this shared grand cru vineyard, one of the most sought-after sites in the appellation for white wine.
Grand Cru Bâtard-Montrachet is built for richness and grip - dense, mineral-driven Chardonnay with the weight and structure to age. Onboard, pour it with shellfish, oily fish, pasta in cream sauces, or a cheese and charcuterie board, where its concentration can match richer textures without being overwhelmed.
