Wine Description
The Story
The Grand Cru vineyard of Bâtard-Montrachet lies between the picturesque villages of Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, home to the world's greatest white wines. Only a small country lane separates this 11.86 hectare vineyard from the great Montrachet itself. Its gentle easterly-facing slope is made up of a deep, rich, gravelly soil which has a limestone base, world renowned for the production of high quality Chardonnay.

Vintage 1953
The 1953 Burgundy vintage is celebrated as one of the most seductive, harmonious, and classically elegant post-war vintages in the region’s storied history. Often overshadowed in historical cellar lore by the muscular, long-lived 1952s or the blockbuster power of 1959, 1953 holds a revered place among connoisseurs because of its immediate, breathtaking charm, fragrant aromatics, and remarkably sustained longevity.
