Chevalier-Montrachet, Grand Cru, Bouchard Pere et Fils

This is a blend of the various terraces of Chevalier-Montrachet which form the Bouchard holding. The first provides the exotics, while bone structure comes from further up the hill. Together they make a fine, powerful Grand Cru wine.
Jasper Morris MW, Burgundy Director

Philippe Prost, long-time winemaker at Bouchard Père & Fils, is less flamboyant than his veteran opposite number at Jadot, but he still has firm opinions and he knows the detail of all his vineyard sites inside out. He clearly prefers his 2010 whites to the previous vintage, though we rather liked those too, while the fresh finish of the vintage has brought his excellent 2010 reds to life.

Bouchard Père et Fils

Sarah Marsh's pick of the 2010 whites - Puligny Montrachet - 5 Stars
Impressively compact and complex. Tense and layered, with quartz minerality, fennel and chocolate. Tremendous, savoury, sappy finish.
(Sarah Marsh, Decanter, December 2011)
