Reviewed March 2025A wine that is jaw-droppingly powerful and complex, the 2022 Montrachet has pronounced aromas of quince, apricot and ripe pear accented with notes of wood spice, fresh-cut flowers and a firm minerality. The dense, concentrated texture is impenetrable today, but there is enough acidity to bring the wine into dynamic balance. This wine is truly one for the ages – wait at least 20 years before you open it, but it should continue to deliver for decades, potentially for a century. 3,565 bottles produced in 2022.(CC)

Wine Spectator
The Montrachet is even grander—opulent, lush and exploding with peach, pastry and briny mineral notes embedded in a viscous texture. It’s backed by vivid acidity, driving its length and definition.

Vinous
The 2022 Montrachet Grand Cru is quite powerful and explosive in the glass. Orange marmalade, marzipan, white pepper, tangerine oil and a kiss of French oak fill out the layers. Readers who can find the 2022 will want to grab it, as production will fall sharply for the foreseeable future now that one-third of the vineyard has been torn out in preparation for replanting in a few years' time. From there, it is likely that fruit from the replanted section will not go into the Montrachet bottling for at least several years.(AG)
