Domaine Bouchard Pere & Fils Beaune 2020 750ml
DescriptionBouchard P?re & Fils brings centuries of expertise to this village Beaune, crafting a wine that captures the appellation's unique position between the power of the C?te de Nuits and the elegance of the C?te de Beaune. Drawing from multiple premier sites, this blend showcases Beaune at its most complete.
The wine opens with classic Beaune aromatics - red cherry and raspberry mingle with notes of rose petal and subtle spice. As it develops, hints of forest floor, black tea, and a touch of leather emerge, adding complexity to the fruit-forward profile. The palate delivers impressive balance; silky tannins support bright red fruit flavors, while earthy undertones and fresh acidity provide structure and length. The finish extends with notes of iron and dried herbs.
Bouchard's traditional winemaking and access to exceptional fruit create a Beaune of real character and complexity. The 2020 vintage's warmth is balanced by careful selection and vinification, resulting in a wine that offers both immediate pleasure and aging potential. This is classic Burgundy that demonstrates why Beaune remains one of the C?te d'Or's most reliable appellations for both drinking and cellaring.
