Strong showing for this 06 BBM from Perrot. Took a hour in the decanter to fully show, but well worth the wait

Dec 20th, 2018Somewhat closed on opening. After 30-45 minutes in the glass, aromas of roasted nuts, toast, smoke and baked apple emerge. On the palate, it's not as full nor as hefty some Bâtard-Montrachet's can be (the website notes 40-50% new oak on Grand Crus) and there is nice mineral overhang and fair acidity. Golden delicious apple, lemon peel, iodine and baking spice round out this classic white Burgundy.
