Here we arrive at the pinnacle of white wine, and the results are breathtaking. The initial impression is surprisingly approachable, with abundant fruit aromas of ripe apples and lemon peel with generous notes of vanilla, ginger, and smoke and a firm mineral underpinning. It is a wine of intense concentration and power on the palate with fabulous extract and vibrant acidity. Despite all the power, however, it never loses its elegance or finesse. Truly a marvel.HK$26,010.00 -

Smoky and lightly oaky aromas include those of most floral, ripe apple compote, Asian-style tea and a broad range of spice nuances. There is excellent size, weight and mid-palate density to the bigger-bodied yet refined flavors that exude a more subtle bead of minerality on the beautifully textured, mouthcoating and hugely long finale that offers better depth as there is just more here. This is doubly impressive in that unlike most vintages of the iconic Ramonet Montrachet, this could actually be enjoyed after only a few years of bottling aging, such is the suppleness of the mid-palate. With that said, this will clearly be more interesting a decade hence.HK$31,485.00 -

Moderately firm reduction pushes all but hints of spice and soft wood toast to the background at present. Like the Chevalier, the mouthfeel of the larger-bodied flavors is super-sleek and while they're not incredibly dense or even overtly powerful, they exude an ineffable class while delivering positively huge persistence on the perfectly well-balanced finale that stains the palate with dry extract. As good as the Chevalier is, and it's frankly as good as any Chevalier in the 2020 vintage, the Montrachet just has an extra dimension of depth. I can't tell you, or describe for you, why exactly, it just does. While it's true that the 2020 vintage produced any number of genuinely great whites, the Ramonet Montrachet would have to be considered in any discussion of the best of the best. If a bottle is offered to you, and you can find the scratch, don't hesitate.HK$30,620.00 -

Discreet but not invisible wood is present on the overtly floral-suffused nose that displays background hints of lemon rind and a phenolic character (think olive oil nuances). There is a lovely texture to the medium-bodied and generously proportioned flavors that brim with sappy dry extract, all wrapped in a bitter citrus and impressively long finale where the only reproach is a hint of warmth.HK$20,995.00 -

Derived entirely from lieu-dit Les Nosroyes, located below the premier cru Les Perrières, Ramonet's 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Village reveal notes of citrus oil, pastry cream, toasted almonds and white flowers. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, elegantly textural and incisive, with racy acids and a chalky finish.HK$2,480.00 -

Ramonet’s 2015 Puligny-Montrachet Les Enseignères reveals a classy and reserved bouquet of wet stones, lime zest, Meyer lemon and iodine, framed by creamy new oak. On the palate, the wine is concentrated, layered and deep at the core, with lovely textural glossiness and detail underpinned by succulent acidity. The lieu-dit of Les Enseignères sits just below Bâtard-Montrachet, and this seems to have been a favored neighborhood in 2015, perhaps because the deeper soils retained sufficient water to preclude significant vine stress. Indeed, this is the domaine's standout Villages-level wine in 2015.HK$4,180.00 -

The 2018 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Murgers des Dents de Chien is showing nicely, wafting from the glass with notes of pear, fresh peach, iodine, pastry cream and wheat toast. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and charming, with an open core of fruit, succulent acids and a saline finish, this is both giving and nicely balanced, and it's already drinking well out of the gates.HK$9,130.00 -
