PYCM Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet 2019

This is a truly magnificent expression. It delivers breathtaking aromatics, with a dazzling array of nuances such as ripe asian pear, white peach, and nectarine, mingling seamlessly with delicate floral undertones of acacia blossom and honeysuckle. These initial aromas are complemented by subtle citrus hints of lemon zest and lemon oil, providing a refreshing lift. As the wine evolves in the glass, more complex nuances emerge, including white truffle, honeycomb, and a gentle smokiness that adds depth. On the palate, the wine is a masterpiece of balance, presenting a luscious, creamy texture that envelops the mouth while maintaining impeccable precision and structure. The fruit flavors are rich yet restrained, with notes of baked pear, golden apple, and ripe melon interplaying with buttery brioche and toasted hazelnuts. This richness is beautifully offset by a lively streak of acidity, which ensures the wine never feels overly opulent. The mineral backbone, characteristic of the limestone-rich terroir, weaves through the wine, imparting a saline quality that provides freshness and length. The 2019 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet is a wine of great refinement and precision, capable of aging for decades, yet already showing remarkable depth and vibrancy.
