| Community Tasting Notes (average 92.5 pts. and median of 93 pts. in 18 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Francophile1 on 4/4/2024 & rated 95 points: So freaking delicious! Corton-Charlemagne, Batard, and Montrachet are all stunning wines from this estate. Each time I have the opportunity of tasting these wines, I am reminded how much I love great White Burgundy. Yum! (341 views) | | | Tasted by WKC on 12/11/2023 & rated 93 points: Very good QPR. Great nose, excellent balance and decent length. (653 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 10/28/2023 & rated 93 points: La Fête du Champagne Grand Tasting (Pier Sixty - New York NY): Walkaround tasting with the producers. Big and brawny with lots of energy to go along with large scaled orchard fruit. This goes on and on to long finish. Needs time. (720 views) | | | Tasted by jfpwine on 9/27/2023 & rated 93 points: Clear yellow color with a green hue. The nose is explosive, with ripe lemon, yellow apple, light tropical fruit. Yet it is sharp and mineral on the palate, with a finish that keeps going. Great wine. (828 views) | | | Tasted by WineBurrowingWombat on 7/22/2023 & rated 92 points: White Burgundy tasting @ K&L (K&L Wine Merchant - San Francisco): Aromas of ripe but awesomely balanced fruit flavors and a nice spiced note, it’s strong spice but very well balanced, and wet river pebbles. Nice richness but somehow manages to stay light and swift.
Drier fruit profile on the palate but leans more toward the minerals and prickly bitterness, and subtle dried stems. Dried, sun basked earth and dried crushed stones.
This was a bit disappointing for the price tag. Even with some time, this didn't improve much. (1519 views) | | | Tasted by _water.into.wine_ on 5/19/2023 & rated 93 points: Pop and pour. Extremely long diam cork. Serious tension. Lots of chalk. For a 2018 it’s well balanced without the heat overly showing. This got better as it got warmer, albeit I preferred this a couple of degrees below room temperature. With time, white chocolate and caramel dominate the nose. This is a great wine that punches well above its relative price point.
Shared with SJW (1047 views) | | | Tasted by SimonG on 4/14/2023 & rated 93 points: An embarrassment of riches (Noizé and 67PM): Blind. Similar colour and style to its sibling.initially a little more cut and maybe a bit more mid palate grip as it opens. Broader with air. Eventually not quite the line and shape. **** (1396 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 11/19/2022 & rated 93 points: Waterford Wine Co. Burgundy Festival (Waterford Wine Co. - Milwaukee WI): Walk around tasting. Big and dense, this seems slightly awkward and angular right now, but with so much great, and really great potential, 2024 forward. (2262 views) | | | Tasted by TheFoodieTraveler on 3/19/2022 & rated 94 points: Tasted at La Paulee Los Angeles. So young, fruit was expectedly muted. Minerality was overt. This one has lots of potential but likely needs 7+ years. (1379 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 3/12/2022 & rated 93 points: La Paulée de New York Grand Tasting (Pier Sixty, Chelsea Piers - New York NY): Walk around tasting. Rich and powerful with the stuffing to restrain the inherent ripeness. This is a big boy that can be fun now, or cellar for a decade+. Very long finish. (1864 views) | | | Tasted by starkravingmad on 11/25/2021 & rated 90 points: Tangy, almost pineapple.
Needed to open to smooth out (1084 views) | | | Tasted by Andre Brattland on 2/21/2021 & rated 93 points: Magnificent fragrance intensity with this hazy feminine aromas based on fresh yellow fruits, citrus flesh, a fine layer of salt and butter. Good delicate, full-bodied and pronounced wine with the feminine aromas that sits above and gives joy to fresh pulp, butter, bitter fruit peel notes and well-integrated barrel tones. Stylish and fresh finish. Very good wine. 93 points. (2075 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 9/2/2020 & rated 93 points: Bouchard 2018 Tasting (Chicago, IL): Walk around tasting. So much apple and pear with hints of beeswax and floral notes, ending with a touch of fresh peach. Still a bit of pronounced new oak, so this needs some time, but easily has the structure to keep everything together despite 2018 ripeness. (1878 views) | | | Tasted by KeithAkers on 9/2/2020 & rated 91 points: 2018 Bouchard Tasting (Off-Premise, Chicago, IL): Nose: This was a clear step up and showed off a broader style with red apples, quince, meyer lemons, waxy notes, peaches, yellow flowers, and a touch of saline. There is good depth, but this does seem a bit tightly coiled at the moment.
Taste: The feel is full bodied with crisp, medium+ acidity. The acidity does add some tension and the feel is well balanced with red apples, quince, wax notes, meyer lemons, peaches, and saline.
Overall: This was very good, but also in need of some aging or decanting. I could see it benefiting from 5+ years of aging and can see this getting much better than it was showing today. (1560 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 3/13/2020: That got some dense power. (1197 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 3/13/2020 & rated 93 points: Bouchard 2018 Tasting (Waterford Wine Co. - Milwaukee WI): Stand up tasting. Rich orchard fruit with obvious Grand Cru density. Powerful and well balanced despite its ripeness. Very tasty already with upside. (2274 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
