Olivier Leflaive Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2019

Pale lemon yellow, with a lightly honeyed aspect to the nose, but appealing fruit beneath. A scintillating burst of fruit on the palate, notable for the intensity of the pure lemon fresh fruit, quite high octane for sure, but with the fruit in the ascendancy. Exceptionally long finish. Overall the tension is enough to match the weight of the wine. Drink from: 2020-2045. Score – 96. (Jasper Morris, MW, insideburgundy.com, May 2023)
