Bouchard Père & Fils
Founded in 1731, Bouchard is one of the most long-standing and important producers in Burgundy. Since their founding, they have been assembling a collection of some of the best Cote d'Or vineyards, including 12 Grand Crus and no less than 74 1er Crus.
With more prestige and history than most, Vinous's Neal Martin has praised them in the past because their wines are "well priced compared to others". As a grower, producer and negociant, it is undeniable that Bouchard Père et Fils has played a significant role in the history of Burgundy but they have now shed their negociant tag as their new owner Artémis Domaines, who also own the likes of Château Latour and now Eisele Vineyard in Napa, have a policy of wishing only to make wines from vineyards which they own.

Vinous (95)Medium red. Exotic candied raspberry, game, rose petal and crushed stone on the come-hither nose. Delivers outstanding clarity of flavor without any hard edges, with the red berry and mineral flavors lifted by a floral topnote. Wonderfully refined and alive in the middle palate. Finishes with noble tannins and outstanding building vibrant length. A prime example of an impeccably balanced 2013 that's not a fleshpot. |

Burgundy | 6 | 92-94 (VN) | HK$9,245.00 | |||||
Vinous (92-94)(this was 12.8% potential alcohol chaptalized to 13.5%): Bright lemon-yellow. Deep, smoky, soil-driven aromas of pineapple, nectarine, peach, iodine and clove. Tactile and dusty on the palate, with strong oak spice and iodine minerality currently dominating the wine's underlying orchard fruit flavors. More musclebound and Montrachet-like than the regular Chevalier-Montrachet in spite of possessing lower acidity (3.9 grams per liter). Finishes very long and firm, with enticing notes of orange, gingerbread and honey. Real creamy density here, but this needs more elevage. |
