A legendary Grand Cru, in an ultra-rare collector’s format
The Montrachet Grand Cru 2021 in magnum format, signed by Domaine Ramonet, represents one of the ultimate expressions of Chardonnay globally. Hailing from one of the most celebrated and coveted climats in all of Burgundy, this wine combines power, precision, and tension. Its evolutionary capacity is further amplified in the magnum version, making it an absolute reference for enthusiasts of the noblest white wine of Côte de Beaune.
The 2021 was a fresh and tense vintage, characterized by contained yields and slow maturation, conditions described as perfect for great Burgundy whites. The Ramonet Montrachet from this harvest displays a sculpted and luminous style, featuring ripe citrus, white peach, field flowers, fine spices, and a profound mineral imprint. The palate is majestic: straight, layered, characterized by a vibrant salinity and a very long finish. The balance between concentration and momentum is simply extraordinary.
Despite being produced in microscopic quantities, the Ramonet Montrachet is a focal point for collectors and international critics every year. It is considered an absolute rarity, possessing few bottles and extremely high symbolic value. Critics have provided strong praise, describing it as, "A dizziness white: structure, elegance and absolute purity", and noting that the 2021 version "embodies the quintessence of the climat". Furthermore, it is hailed as, "A wine that defines what Chardonnay can be in Burgundy". This reference is not only an exceptional wine but also a liquid monument to the grandeur of the Burgundian terroir. Every bottle represents a declaration of style, legacy, and production rigor.
