Batard Montrachet Grand Cru Domaine Drouhin, 2007

Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru is one of Burgundy’s most celebrated white wines, and Domaine Drouhin’s 2007 bottling captures the finesse and prestige of this legendary site. Made from Chardonnay in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, it combines richness, precision, and a distinctly mineral edge that has made Bâtard-Montrachet a benchmark for fine white Burgundy for generations.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Grand Cru typically shows a deep golden hue with impressive concentration. The nose is layered and expressive, with aromas of ripe citrus, white peach, toasted hazelnut, subtle spice, and a refined flinty character that reflects its limestone origins. On the palate, it is full-bodied and textured, yet beautifully balanced by bright acidity and a long, saline finish. Expect flavors of orchard fruit, lemon curd, buttered brioche, and crushed stone, with the complexity and structure to evolve gracefully over time. In a strong vintage like 2007, it can still offer excellent aging potential, continuing to gain nuance and depth in bottle.

Production
Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru lies on the prized slopes between Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, where clay-limestone soils and excellent drainage give Chardonnay its signature power and precision. Domaine Drouhin works with meticulous attention in this revered vineyard, harvesting by hand to preserve fruit integrity and selecting only the finest grapes. Vinification is carried out with a focus on purity and balance, often involving controlled fermentation and careful oak aging to enhance texture without overwhelming the wine’s natural character. The result is a Grand Cru that reflects both the grandeur of the terroir and the domaine’s restrained, elegant style.

Food & Serving
This wine is an exceptional match for lobster, scallops, turbot, roast chicken with cream sauce, or fine dishes with morels and truffle. It also pairs beautifully with rich shellfish and refined poultry preparations. Serve at around 12–14°C and consider decanting briefly if opened young, though older bottles should be handled with care and enjoyed with minimal aeration.
