Scores

OK, we know £60 a pop is serious white wine pricing, but Batàr is very serious, biodynamically-produced white wine. The name is a playful homage to Bâtard-Montrachet for this blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc, fermented and aged in French barriques, 30% of which are new. It has a haunting, beautiful fragrance, all the floral charm and subtle oatmeal richness, refined and agile mineral balance and such a flood of peachy fruit on the palate. Immensely fresh, but with almond, subtle honey, and terrific balancing acidity. Delicious, complex and understated, this is indeed a great white wine. Score: 94 Points The Wine Gang

Tasting Notes

Peachy, floral and honeyed with hints of fresh grass and mint. Generous, rich and expressive yet focussed and precise. Powerful, concentrated and structured with driving acidity and a firm mineral backbone. This is a masterful balancing act and an extremely special wine.

ProducerQuerciabella

The name Querciabella is perfectly fitting for this Chianti estate, surrounded by a sheltering forest of magnificent trees. Twenty Twenty-Four marks the 50th vintage for the estate and the beginning of a new era with Mita Castiglioni, eldest daughter of Pepito, taking the reins. Under her leadership, Querciabella continues to be one of Italy's most innovative wineries, pioneering vegan and biodynamic practices. With the expertise of talented South African winemaker Manfred Ing, Querciabella consistently produces some of the purest expressions of Chianti Classico as well as Super-Tuscans with their acclaimed wines Camartina, Palafreno and one of Italy's most celebrated white wines, Batàr, alongside a range of exciting wines from the Maremma region.
