Decanter (99)Here we arrive at the pinnacle of white wine, and the results are breathtaking. The initial impression is surprisingly approachable, with abundant fruit aromas of ripe apples and lemon peel with generous notes of vanilla, ginger, and smoke and a firm mineral underpinning. It is a wine of intense concentration and power on the palate with fabulous extract and vibrant acidity. Despite all the power, however, it never loses its elegance or finesse. Truly a marvel. |

Burghound (97)Smoky and lightly oaky aromas include those of most floral, ripe apple compote, Asian-style tea and a broad range of spice nuances. There is excellent size, weight and mid-palate density to the bigger-bodied yet refined flavors that exude a more subtle bead of minerality on the beautifully textured, mouthcoating and hugely long finale that offers better depth as there is just more here. This is doubly impressive in that unlike most vintages of the iconic Ramonet Montrachet, this could actually be enjoyed after only a few years of bottling aging, such is the suppleness of the mid-palate. With that said, this will clearly be more interesting a decade hence. |

Burghound (98)Moderately firm reduction pushes all but hints of spice and soft wood toast to the background at present. Like the Chevalier, the mouthfeel of the larger-bodied flavors is super-sleek and while they're not incredibly dense or even overtly powerful, they exude an ineffable class while delivering positively huge persistence on the perfectly well-balanced finale that stains the palate with dry extract. As good as the Chevalier is, and it's frankly as good as any Chevalier in the 2020 vintage, the Montrachet just has an extra dimension of depth. I can't tell you, or describe for you, why exactly, it just does. While it's true that the 2020 vintage produced any number of genuinely great whites, the Ramonet Montrachet would have to be considered in any discussion of the best of the best. If a bottle is offered to you, and you can find the scratch, don't hesitate. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-98)Two barrels made. A glowing pale lemon and lime colour. Though the barrels are not new they still lend a touch of coconut to this sublimely opulent Montrachet. The riches are properly balanced on the palate though, with waves of perfectly ripe fruit sweeping through the mouth. Some tropical notes, and lower in acidity to taste, thanks to the power of the fruit. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted: November 2023. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)Mid yellow. Fresh but ripe, even quite exotic with a lemon zest running through the middle. Very good, but meets the sunshine a little bit too evidently. The Montrachet may not quite match the weight and class of the Bâtard-Montrachet on today’s showing. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted Oct 2024. |

Nestled between the equally well-regarded Chassagne-Montrachet and Meursault in the Cote de Beaune, some of Burgundy’s most elegant and stylish white wines are found in Puligny Montrachet. There are four highly coveted Grand Cru vineyards located in Puligny; Montrachet and Batard-Montrachet (both shared with neighbouring Chassagne-Montrachet) as well as Chevalier-Montrachet and Bienvenues-Batard-Montrachet, both located entirely within Puligny.
