Bouchard Père et Fils - Bouzeron 2012
14/20
Bettane & Desseauve
Its brilliant pale gold color with green highlights heralds a delicate, fresh nose, exuding notes of lemon and white-fleshed fruits. On the palate, it is fresh and aromatic, both crisp and supple, with a subtle hint of mint. A wine and an appellation with character that certainly make an impression!

Rated estate (2023 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune-based wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots across 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate wine-growing heritage allows Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker previously in charge of Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year, with the majority of production coming from purchased grapes for the grand reds and from carefully selected musts for the whites other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both whites and reds in recent vintages.
