100% Chardonnay from the 1.98 ha monopole (since 1791) Clos Saint-Landry. Manual harvest in small 13 kg boxes. Manual sorting by grape. Dual-phase pressing: first run juice followed by 2-hr cycle. Aged 12-14 months in French oak barrels (up to 15% new) plus 6-8 months in stainless steel vats all under optimal environment of the cellars of the ancient Château de Beaune. 13% Abv.
Background: Founded in 1731 in Beaune by Michel Bouchard and continued for 3 centuries and 9 generations. Acquired by Joseph Henriot (Maisons & Domaines Henriot) in 1995 which in turn became part of the group Artemis Domaines in 2022 under François Pinault (Château Latour, Christie's, etc.) Cellar Master: Frédéric Weber (since 2013)
A(ccuray)=2: Limpid silver/green tint. Floral toasty varietal. B(alance)=3: Ripe fruit with refined structure. C(omplexity)=2: Apple, apricot, light cream, mineral. D(epth)=1: Textured mouthfeel. Good length and finish.
Wine Tally Score [2,3,2,1]= 8/10
Ripe for early consumption.

La Fête du Champagne Grand Tasting (Pier Sixty - New York NY): Walkaround tasting with the producers. Apple and pear start-to-finish, charming and balanced already now.

Waterford Wine Co. Burgundy Festival (Waterford Wine Co. - Milwaukee WI): Walk around tasting. Ripe apple and pear with good density. This almost seems simple to start, then goes on and on to a long finish. 89-90 point potential.
