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.
