The Domaine Jacques Carillon Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2012 is a white Burgundy crafted from Chardonnay grapes. This Grand Cru displays exemplary finesse and a concentrated, tightly wound character. The wine exhibits a perfume of mandarin orange, white flowers, and oak spices, with concentrated flavours of peach, soft citrus fruits and a saline minerality. The palate is delicate yet persistent, balanced by a notable generosity and a long finish. Domaine Jacques Carillon owns a tiny parcel of 0.12 hectares within the Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru vineyard. The wine is aged in oak barrels for one year, using a limited proportion of new wood, followed by six months in stainless steel.

(13.6% alcohol, the only one of these 2012s that was not chaptalized): Captivating perfume of mandarin orange and sexy oak spices. Concentrated and tightly wound, showing lovely concentration and energy to the flavors of peach, soft citrus fruits and saline minerality. Finishes tactile and long, with good energy (4.5 grams per liter acidity). This is a bit like the 2013 in its balance and verve. There's just a single barrel of this juice.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2014
