This estate makes a whopping 10 barrels, or 250 cases, of Batard-Montrachet. The 1998 reveals tropical fruit aromas, intermingled with hints of English toffee. Rich, plum, and thick, this medium to full-bodied, pear, apple, vanilla, and buttered toast-flavored wine is concentrated, fresh, and intense. Drink this beauty over the next 10 years.
