Ramonet
Domaine Ramonet was established in the late 1920s by infamous Pierre Ramonet. It has been recognised for some time as the leading estate in the Chassagne. Now under his grandsons Noel and Jean-Claude they have remained remarkably consistent with superb Chardonnay at all levels. Their masterpiece Montrachet is on the wish list of collectors and wine lovers alike. They also offer some increasingly popular red wine.

Burghound (95)Here the nose is firmly reduced so in the unlikely event you're interested in opening a bottle right away, be sure to give it 30 minutes or so of air and decanting it would be better still. Otherwise, there is slightly better underlying energy to the rich yet nicely detailed, even precise, middleweight plus flavors that also deliver impressive length on the bitter lemon-inflected finale. While this isn't as structured as it usually is, it's still going to need close to a decade if you wish to see the '19 Bâtard at its peak. |

Burghound (94)Hints of mineral reduction and matchstick character suffuse the elegant aromas of honeysuckle, acacia blossom and spiced pear that are trimmed in wisps of wood and lemon rind. The super-sleek, intense and nicely detailed flavors possess good richness on the citrusy and beautifully long finale where moderate warmth slowly emerges. This elegant effort is perhaps a bit bolder and powerful than is usually the case and a BBM that should age gracefully over the next decade. |

Burghound (94)A touch of matchstick character is present on the cool if ripe aromas of honeysuckle, carnation, lemon-lime and crushed fennel. The supple and caressing medium weight flavors are rich to the point of opulence with excellent density and punch that carries over to the impressively long and sappy finale where the only reproach is again a touch of warmth. I would not describe the '19 BBM as a classic example from Ramonet but it's extremely good nonetheless. |

Vinous (89-91)(from 60- and 35-year-old vines): Bright yellow with a green tinge. Sexy sulfidey complexity to the stone fruit aromas. In a distinctly supple style and the most feminine of the '17s I tasted at Ramonet, conveying lovely sweetness and purity. Terrific fat fruit here, not to mention enticing early balance. |

Wine Advocate (94+)The 2016 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Ruchottes is superb, wafting from the glass with aromas of Anjou pear, iodine, tangerine oil and wet stones, subtly framed by a delicate touch of new wood. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with excellent concentration, incisive acids and a long, precise finish. This is more old-fashioned than the 2014 rendition, and if that wine resembles the domaine's 2010, this has more affinities with the 2008. |

Burghound (90)Here too there is just enough reduction to push the underlying fruit to the background but it's not so heavy as to obscure the fact that it's ripe with white fleshed fruit and just a touch of oak. The super-sleek, delicious and vibrant flavors are presently relatively compact on the agreeably dry finish that flashes a touch of warmth. The oak does reappear, and this is mildly awkward today so I would suggest allowing this at least a few years to integrate its wood and better harmonize. |

Vinous (89-92)Captivating nose combines white fruits, mint and menthol, lifted by powdered stone and a floral topnote. More saline than the foregoing samples, conveying a dry but round umami character and notes of minerals and menthol. Less open than the Boudriotte, with its substantial alcohol supported by flavor intensity. (13.7% alcohol) |
