The 2022 Blain-Gagnard Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is a powerful white Burgundy Chardonnay showing ripe lemon, white peach and pear with hazelnut, white flowers and fine stony mineral notes.
On the palate, it is rich yet precisely balanced, with vibrant acidity supporting a broad, creamy texture. Citrus, orchard fruit and subtle nutty characters lead into a long, dry and persistent mineral finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional choice for Chardonnay collectors seeking depth, texture and the structure of Grand Cru Burgundy. Best enjoyed from 2028–2043. Serve lightly chilled with butter-poached marron, seared scallops, roast turbot with beurre blanc or chicken with morel mushrooms.
