Jean Claude Guyaux Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2020 AOC 0.75l

Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2020 AOC 0.75l by Jean Claude Guyaux is a Burgundy white wine that celebrates the precision of the Batard-Montrachet terroir, offering the taster a clean and powerful portrait of this appellation, born from a vineyard tended with rigor and passion within a winemaking philosophy that favors a balance between tradition and innovation. The producer's history is that of a family business that expresses the land with a light touch, favoring manual harvesting, careful grape selection, and meticulous yield management to preserve the freshness and identity of the fruit. Jean Claude Guyaux's identity is founded on a vocation for the terroir: every phase, from pruning to bottling, is guided by an artisanal respect for the raw material, with a care that translates into a winery where work is simple yet rigorous. The distinguishing features of this Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru compared to other producers in the area lie in its complex texture and mineral tension that explode on the nose and palate: the limestone soil and marl matrix lend the bouquet citrus notes, white flowers, and a hint of saltiness that invites further tasting. Stylistically, the wine displays a golden yellow hue, elegant density, and a mouthfeel fueled by fresh acidity; aromas of lemon and grapefruit zest mingle with a touch of toasted almond, opening to a creamy palate supported by transparent minerality and a long finish. Within the Jean Claude Guyaux portfolio, the Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2020 holds a prominent place: it is the flagship white wine of the production, capable of expressing a complex terroir and accompanying complex tastings, from an aperitif to a particularly refined dinner. In closing, this wine is an example of how discipline and artisanal sensitivity can transform the land into an experience, in line with STELT's positioning.
