The name nods to Mounir's time studying winemaking at a Trappist monastery in Lebanon. The house buys grapes after fermentation from a carefully selected list of growers across the Côte d'Or, working from village level up to the most celebrated Premier and Grand Cru sites. Production is intentionally small, rarely exceeding 100 barrels in total each vintage, often only one barrel of each cuvée.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBâtard-Montrachet is one of the great white Grand Cru sites of Burgundy, straddling Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet. The Chardonnay from this prestigious terroir is rich and broad-shouldered, with white peach, honeysuckle, hazelnut, lemon curd and toasted brioche over a deep, layered palate carried by fine acidity and a long, mineral finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMounir's signature is an extended élevage on the lees with no racking, no fining and no filtration, in barrels that are typically 100% new oak from the Jupilles forest. Sulfur is added only minimally and late. The wines are bottled directly from barrel without blending, designed to express the place rather than the man.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVintages may vary.
