2005. Perhaps a bit past its prime. But still excellent. Morphed to a chalky sense on the palate. Still loved it. — 10 months ago

Clean! 2012 BBM is in a terrific place, all about richness and intensity with deep complex layers of butterscotch, spiced orchard fruit and candied white flowers laced with minerality. The palate is voluptuous with tremendous density and volume and a finish that keeps on going. Top notch white burg! — 8 months ago

What a beautiful expression of Chardonnay in the glass. Both subtle and interesting on the nose, richness of color, and a perfectly balanced wine. And while the wine had a strong mineral foundation it was much more engaging than just a single note. So glad my cellar has several more bottles to enjoy in the years ahead. — 2 years ago

Still Fresh Dry Rich Gentle Fineness Elegant Domaine Faiveley (Joseph Faiveley) Bienvenues Batard Montrachet Grand Cru Chardonnay 19 @3800(66000), ADV, 261009 — a month ago
Medium deep lemon yellow , showing a bit of age but not unduly so . On the nose this is quite rich and ripe , some apricot , lemon peel , melted butter , sea breeze and toasted hazelnuts . On the palate this also shows that richness , with ripe yellow fruits , peach , citrus peel and toasty hazelnut . This has just enough acidity along with balanced alcohol , though quite weighty and rich in style it is also balanced by its sheer extract and intensity . Good length with toasty , yellow fruit tinged finish . Quite a rich , generous Batard , though it is overall well balanced and starting to show very well , no rush here but it’s probably in its prime drinking window . From now and over the next 5 -8 years perhaps . — 4 months ago

Yes! Brilliant, even if early it’s long life. Such as a nice expression of chardonnay that was placed in our lives for food ,.,. Oysters for me this time. — 6 days ago
