Community Tasting Notes (35) Avg Score: 92.8 points

  • Three Cedric Bouchard wines: 2015 Les Ursules vs 2016 Cote de Val Vilaine vs 2019 La Boloree. This confirmed my impressions of previous bottles: we never will be friends. I had quite strong rotten egg smell in every wine, and in general lots of funk I don’t like. But beside that, the wines are complex, precise and they’re quite elegant. Everybody I talked to liked it quite a lot, so if you’re a fan of the style, ignore this note.

  • During a merchant tasting, no detailed notes. The Cedric Bouchard Non dosé wines really showed well, generous, aromatic and not lean. I guess the 4t/ha ripe fruit makes up for the absence of the dosage. The BdN 2016 Val Vilaine (96pt) was my favorite, really succulent and aromatic, the BdB (from Pinot Blanc) 2019 Bolorée (95pt) wonderfully fresh with lots of aroma and the BdN 2015 Ursules (94pt) the richest of them all. Impressive stuff and the price shows it.

  • Beautiful balance of finish, bubbles, acidity, richness. Very clean and beautiful fruit. Obviously farmed and picked with care. Definitely not a 100 point wine for me but I would be absolutely delighted if this was in my cellar.

  • Deep Pinot fruit. This wine just thinks me deep. More open than the last bottle in 2022. Approaching greatness in a few years.

  • Really pretty nose with citrusy flavors, some berry notes, minerals, and dried flowers. Great acidity on the palate with more lemon flavors, creamy mouthfeel, a hint of strawberry, and more minerals. Long finish. Excellent wine that feels impeccably balanced and just a joy to drink!
