Aromas of white flowers, fresh peach, toasted bread, mandarin oil and pastry cream introduce Bouchard's 2019 Montrachet Grand Cru, a full-bodied, layered and multidimensional wine that's deep and concentrated, with racy acids, terrific mid-palate amplitude and a long, saline finish. Broad shouldered and powerful without being at all overbearing, it's an exemplary rendition of this celebrated site.

The 2019 Montrachet Grand Cru has a complex bouquet of crushed chalk, mirabelle, apricot and light vanilla pod aromas, plus just a touch of white chocolate in the background. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite powerful and very well defined. Orange zest, mandarin and lemon thyme notes feature on a very long finish that fans out extremely well. Superb.

Cask sample. Richer than the Chevalier-Montrachet. Very youthful. Lots going on here such as electric lime fruit. It really does have a lot going on on the end. But it's all awfully unformed. There's quite a bit of sweetness. Not yet complex but it might get there.

Since 1731, Bouchard Pere et Fils has carefully acquired some of the best Cote d'Or vineyards, including 12 Grand Cru and 74 Premier Cru. Their most famous vineyard, Beaune Greves Vigne de l'Enfant Jesus, was added during the French Revolution when property from clergy and nobility was seized and put up for sale. Bouchard Pere et Fils are wine growers, producers and negociants and they have played a significant role in the history of Burgundy.
