Wednesday, September 2, 2020 - 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.
