Bouchard Pere et Fils, Chevalier-Montrachet 2022

Bouchard Pere et Fils

Case Format: 6x75cl

Drink To: 2070

Founded in 1731 in Beaune by Michel Bouchard, Bouchard Père & Fils, is one of the oldest wine estates in Burgundy, perpetuating tradition for nearly three centuries and nine generations. According to the legend, the Lord of Montrachet shared his land out between his two sons. One became a Chevalier during the crusades, giving his name to this Grand Cru. The Chevalier-Montrachet has a distinguished bouquet, with floral and fruit aromas as well as a toasted note. Complex and rich, without the least heaviness, this wine is elegance itself. Very good ageing potential.

James Suckling

Another breathtaking masterpiece from this Grand Cru. Its rather easy to describe the front palate with its white flowers, Amalfi lemon, white peach and fresh pineapple character, but then you depart on a long, dangerous and exciting journey that takes you up mountains, through rivers and across vast meadows. The wine’s sense of space and scale must be experienced to be believed. Then some last steps - thousands of steps - along a stony path... yet the final impression is light and delicate. From 2.3 hectares of vineyards on all four terraces of this legendary site.

Cask sample. Deeper colour in the glass than the Corton-Charlemagne, the wood is more obvious here than with the other grand cru. Lovely equilibrium on the palate with mineral notes, a line of lemon/lime, some tropical notes. This will age effortlessly for 5 years and drink well for many more. (AWH)
