Reviews of 2006 Girardin, Vincent Bienvenue Batard Montrachet Grand Cru Chardonnay
93 points, Burghound July 2008 A highly, and seductively, scented nose of honeysuckle, gingerbread and anise gracefully introduces rich, intense and beautifully detailed middle weight flavors that carry a touch of natural sweetness and fine mid-palate concentration, all wrapped in an energetic, punchy and persistent finish. This is a really pretty wine and while it's not yet as complex as it will probably become with time, there is clearly good upside potential here. In sum, this is a classic Bienvenue and Girardin is in fact coming closer to his expressed goal of making more terroir transparent wines.
91 points, Stephen Tanzer October 2008 Bright medium yellow. Ripe peach and honey on the nose, with exotic apricot and marzipan nuances that almost suggest a bit of botrytis. Fat, full, superripe and sweet, with a dried fruit suggestion in the mouth. An opulent middle palate leads to a long finish that's slightly blurred by alcoholic warmth. I'd want to consume this over the next five years, as there would probably be more to lose than to gain by waiting even longer.
92 points, Wine Spectator August 2008 Full-bodied and powerful, with lemon cream, pineapple, mineral and spice aromas and flavors that align with the creamy texture before the structure emerges and freshens the palate. Outstanding, yet there's not quite the length for this to really sing. Best from 2010 through 2020. 200 cases imported. –BS
