Description
Under a gold color with emerald reflections, yellowing with age, the bouquet of Montrachet suggests butter and hot croissant, fern, dried fruits, spices and honey. We no longer distinguish the body and the bouquet, so much structure and harmony merge into a perfect unity. Smooth and firm, dry and caressing, enveloped and deep, this wine has all the graces under an inflexible character. The power and aromatic persistence of this unique nectar require noble, sophisticated dishes with a complex texture. In short, fine cuisine: foie gras of course, but also caviar. Lobster, lobster, large wild shrimp, powerful in flavor and firm, even crunchy to the bite, will pay a deserved tribute to the Montrachet appellation. Montrachet is synonymous with "bald mountain". Formerly, Rachet meant shaved when talking about a hill.
