"The 2009 Batard-Montrachet positively explodes from the glass.Round,sweet,and expressive,the wine saturates the palate with masses of fruit in a bold,powerful style that is utterly irresistible.The finish is intense and resonant in all directions.Remy notes that the Batard is the only 2009 above 14% in alcohol".

Antonio Galloni. (August 2011).
"Mineral,steel and toast set this impressive,well-structured wine on to the road for aging.Behind the initially severe,very young exterior is the richest yellow and white fruit,exuding power,concentration and density.Give it 6-8 years and many more".

Roger Voss. (The Wine Enthusiast. December 2011).
"An expressive and actually quite elegant nose features lemon rind,spiced pear,white peach,and plenty of dried floral influences.The supple,round and imposingly scaled big-bodied flavors are impressively concentrated and while quite powerful,they are also quite seductively textured before culminating in an explosive,yet impeccably well-balanced finish.As is usually the case,this is a big wine but it retains a certain refinement that,in the same vein as the Bienvenues,is not exactly expected in a bold and exceptionally rich vintage like 2009".

Allen Meadows. (Burghound. June 2012).
"Bright,green-tinged yellow.Lime,powdered stone and mint on the nose,along with a buttery nuance.Dense,saline,sappy and intensely flavored; offers very good cut for a wine with such breadth and richness.The white peach and lime tea flavors are complemented by a hint of exotic fruits.Much more powerful and chewy than the Bienvenue (this is 13.5% alcohol),not to mention more structured.Finishes with a whiplash of mirabelle,honey and jasmine".
(95 Points).
Stephen Tanzer. (International Wine Cellar. October 2011).
