| Community Tasting Notes (average 89.3 pts. and median of 89 pts. in 9 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by peternelson on 9/24/2023 & rated 91 points: Showing very well, med. body, good verve, not overripe, nice presence for a village--very pretty, slight tingly note with med. concentration. Perfect with oysters and seafood at Walrus and Carpenter w/K (261 views) | | | Tasted by grapenomad on 1/3/2019 & rated 86 points: Needs time to open up, but is also probably too young all together. Lime zest, crushed stone and lemon juice are the theme song here. Opens its gates to tropical hints on the palate, but still retains its homogeneous minerality trait. What I don't like about this wine is that it's too representative of NW Chardonnay rather than a Burgundy. The weight and bitterness are jammed together with the high alcohol (even after a long time in the glass), giving an impression of a cheap wine. Would like to try it in the future again, but I'm not ecstatic. (1465 views) | | | Tasted by peternelson on 11/15/2017 & rated 89 points: Consistent with the vintage, this was rather soft in the entry, rounded, with light tropical notes, ripe melon, some yellow peach, and a clear dose of oak. I thought it was NW blind. Nice enough, but after tasting 20-30 2015 white burgs a while back, it's just too ripe a vintage. A bit flashy now, I would drink within the next few years. The Stony Hill Chard same year was very crisp, elegant, mineral. A complete reversal of character! (1998 views) | | | Tasted by Derek Darth Taster on 11/1/2017 & rated 91 points: Tasted blind. Halloween night at Chateau Davyd.
Appearance is clear, pale intensity, lemon colour. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of pungent wet stones minerality, sweet yellow florals, honeyed lemon drops, some toasty almond nut, cream peach. Developing.
On the palat, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13%), medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of honeyed lemon drops, wet stones minerality, white peach, pear, almond nut, cream. Long finish.
As it warmed up with more air, the creamy oak and fatty roundness became more apparent.
Very good quality. I was actually guessing A Puligny-Montrachet lesser 1er Cru from a ripe vintage. Wow more oak and richness than I would expect from a usual Village wine. Definitely aided by the strong vintage also. Room for positive development over the next 3-4 years. (2089 views) | | | Tasted by peternelson on 8/10/2017 & rated 89 points: Very "just barely ripe" tropical notes of melon, pineapple core, even hard mango/guava. Not as precise as other vintages, slightly rounded, enjoyable but lacking depth and complexity. Stick with the reds--this was not worth the price tag. Try again in 3 years to see how/if it ages.
Nonetheless, this was delightful served cold on a hot summer evening with grilled bell peppers and rockfish. 89+ (2073 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 6/30/2017 & rated 88 points: Bouchard Père et Fils "Entry Level" 2015 Vintage Tasting (Beaune): Tasting, brief note. Floral start with ripe apple, peach and marzipan. Starts out fat and easy, then better energy and balance on finish. Best young. (2468 views) |

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
