Wine tasting
Tasting Note
Our Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2014 reveals a beautiful golden colour. The nose is concentrated and offers toasted brioche and almond paste aromas. The mouth is ample, rich and very well-balanced with yellow fruits and spice notes. Nice minerality on the finish.
Food Pairing
Pan-fried sea scallops – saffroned monkfish – lobster thermidor
