Tasting notes
Scents of dark berries, rose petals, violets and truffles introduce Bouchard's 2019 Chambertin Grand Cru, a medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated wine that's lively and tightly wound, concluding with a long, lively finish. From a parcel at the top of the slope at the southern extreme of Le Chambertin, the soils are thin and cancerous, and the resulting wine is refined, rather than massive.

The 2019 Chambertin Grand Cru, which comes from the Domaine, has a very sensual bouquet of pure cranberry, raspberry and wild strawberry aromas, plus delicate rose petal scents mixed with rainswept limestone. The medium-bodied palate offers lithe tannins, a cashmere texture and lovely weight and harmony. Impressive structure combined with finesse on the persistent finish. Superb.
