The score for 2011 Joseph Drouhin Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche Grand Cru is 96 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - This is the third time that I have tasted the 2011 Montrachet Grand Cru from Drouhin (for Marquis de Laguiche), and it remains a knockout grand cru. Deeper in color than when I tasted it a couple of years ago, it has a vibrant, effervescent bouquet with fine mineralité, hints of white peach and fresh melon surfacing with time, even an unexpected mote of vanilla pod. The palate has wonderful balance, tangible entry and edge, with that hint of orange zest on the finish. This is a superb Montrachet that should give 20+ years of drinking pleasure.
