As a contrast to the Bienvenues, the Bâtard has deeper but much tighter aromas. In the mouth likewise, it’s hiding it’s complexity. If there is one area where this pulls rank, it is the intensity of the mid-plate, but overall this is showing in a very tight way so gives an ‘easy win’ to the Bienvenues for drinking today.

Plenty of oak on the nose – closer to toast than brioche – it’s wide but not showing much depth. Very fruit-driven flavours and quite concentrated. Well balanced and shows a good finish. It misses that extra dimension for ’special’ but it’s very, very good.

The nose is faintly savoury and eventually a little creamy over equally faint fruit. Full-pack in the mouth with slightly less sweet fruit and a little oak and spritz. Oakily long.
