"This Burgundy grand cru will elevate any meal lucky enough to feature it—simply unforgettable!"

“An impressive wine. Bouchard owns two plots of nearly identical size: one near the top of the hillside in Plante l’Abbé, planted in 1956, and the other in Baudes Basses. [...] The result is surprisingly mineral and fresh, with a savory note that complements the ripe black fruit. It is slightly less powerful than the 2018, but it offers captivating intensity, firm tannins, a dense structure, and a finish of impressive length. 2024–2039” (Decanter 2021)

Wine rated (2019 guide) 95/100

Rated estate (2023 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the wine:

This vintage comes from the upper part of the vineyard; it is refined and complex, perfectly reflecting the character of the upper section of the vineyard, with a texture similar to that of a Grand Echezeaux. However, in this vintage, the best Côte de Beaune wines have more charm and offer the same aging potential.

About the estate:

From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots spanning 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate viticultural heritage enables Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker who previously managed Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year; the majority of production comes from purchased grapes for the great reds and from carefully selected musts for the whites, other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both white and red wines in recent vintages.

About the wine:

An impressive wine. Bouchard owns two plots of nearly identical size: one near the top of the hillside in Plante l’Abbé, planted in 1956, and the other in Baudes Basses. However, they did not include grapes from the latter vines, located at the foot of the hillside, because they were recently replanted. This vintage therefore comes from mature vines located at the highest point of the hillside. The 2017 harvest began on September 13. Thirty percent of the grapes were fermented as whole clusters, and the wine was aged in 30% new oak barrels. The result is surprisingly mineral and fresh, with a savory note that complements the ripe black fruit. It is slightly less powerful than the 2018, but it offers captivating intensity, firm tannins, a dense structure, and a finish of impressive length. 2024–2039

About the wine:

Notes of cranberry and beet, a very velvety, tannic texture, and a hint of bitterness on the finish. Powerful and aromatic, with a style that’s still a bit unrefined at this point.

About the wine:

This wine offers very velvety aromas of violets, flowers, and blueberries, which linger on the palate with a lovely fullness of ripe, round tannins. The finish is long and velvety. It displays impressive power and maturity. Best enjoyed starting in 2022.
