Bouchard Père & Fils
Founded in 1731, Bouchard is one of the most long-standing and important producers in Burgundy. Since their founding, they have been assembling a collection of some of the best Cote d'Or vineyards, including 12 Grand Crus and no less than 74 1er Crus.
With more prestige and history than most, Vinous's Neal Martin has praised them in the past because their wines are "well priced compared to others". As a grower, producer and negociant, it is undeniable that Bouchard Père et Fils has played a significant role in the history of Burgundy but they have now shed their negociant tag as their new owner Artémis Domaines, who also own the likes of Château Latour and now Eisele Vineyard in Napa, have a policy of wishing only to make wines from vineyards which they own.

(1x75cl) 2005Vinous (89-91)
Good deep ruby-red. Aromas of blackberry, violet and licorice pastille. Juicy, minerally and penetrating but tightly coiled and on the lean side, in need of long barrel aging. This seems a bit less ripe than Bouchard's best domain offerings (like the Charmes, this is purchased wine), as well as more heavily extracted, even brutal. Finishes with a note of licorice and some tough tannins.Inc. TAX€245.82 -

(6x75cl) 2014Vinous (91-93)
(aged almost entirely in one-year-old barrels, mostly from Chassin): Bright red-ruby. Dark raspberry, dark chocolate, medicinal clove, licorice and spices on the nose, complicated by cinnamon and blond tobacco nuances. Plush, round and seamless, showing lovely subtle spicy depth and a hint of chocolate to the very pure, inviting flavors of raspberry, mocha and minerals. Silky and aromatic in the mouth in spite of its obvious oakiness, and smooth on the finish. There's a good bit of Pinot Beurot here; Bouchard used to eliminate it from this wine but Weber is now including it for greater complexity.Inc. TAX€829.68 -

Vinous (89-91)
(made from purchased wine): Medium ruby. Aromas of blackberry, violet, licorice and bitter chocolate. Sweet and fairly large-scaled in the middle, and a bit exotic, with soft flavors of redcurrant and spices. Finishes with substantial fine-grained tannins but could use more lift. Flashy wine, like lipstick, notes Prost.Inc. TAX€1,915.68 -
(6x75cl) 2000Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (88-91)
Red-ruby. Highly aromatic nose combines minerals, licorice, chocolate mint, spiced bread and tobacco. Fresh and intensely flavored but very tight; conveys an impression of finesse and strong acidity. Very ripe and chocolatey but shy today. Finishes long and subtle, with substantial fine tannins. Serious juice.Inc. TAX€2,787.66 -
(6x75cl) 2020Vinous (91-93)
The 2020 Volnay Taillepieds 1er Cru has a lovely spicy bouquet with clove and white pepper scents infusing the dark berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe tannins, taut and crisp, quite spicy and grippy towards the finish. Good potential.Inc. TAX€574.32 -

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)
Absolutely black centre to this with a massively concentrated bouquet, thus far hiding the detail. Inky depths. I would like to see this again after racking. The wine is not destabilised on the palate and the concentration is certainly exceptional, fresher at the finish. There is certainly an awful lot of wine here: buy it if you want a wine for 25 years time! Tasted: November 2021Inc. TAX€407.52 -
James Suckling (95)
This a firm and pretty red with a solid tannin backbone to the medium body. Ripe fruit with some walnut, tobacco, and floral undertones. It’s long and flavorful. Balanced and firm. Classic style. Drink in 2025.Inc. TAX€540.23 -
Wine Advocate (91-93)
The 2023 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Lavières is lovely, bursting with aromas of sweet berries, licorice and violets, followed by a medium to full-bodied, velvety and succulent palate built around sweet, powdery tannins.Expected Price Range€291 - €350 -
Inc. TAX€524.14 -
Vinous (92+)
Healthy dark red. Cool aromas of black cherry and stony minerality. Juicy and penetrating, conveying lovely definition and energy to its currant, mineral and spicy oak flavors. Finishes savory and long, with more refined tannins than Bouchard's bottlings from the Côte de Beaune. Yields on the Côte de Beaune were generally very low in 2014, noted winemaker Frédéric Weber, but the wines from the Côte de Nuits are more generous and more classic.Inc. TAX€1,390.49 -
(3x75cl) 2023Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (96-98)
Medium deep lemon. The nose only barely suggests what is to come. The Montrachet shows massive opulence up front with golden fruit and peaches, then a wall of tension, then suddenly it seems to stop, only to start again and continue on the second half of its journey. A little hard to read in its extreme youth, but I suspect that this will make a very fine Montrachet. Amazing length, all registers of fruit. Drink from 2033-2045. Tasted Oct 2024.Expected Price Range€3,074 - €3,688 -
(6x75cl) 2021Vinous - Neal Martin (97)
The 2021 Montrachet Grand Cru has an elegant bouquet that opens in the glass with crushed stone and light oily/resinous scents, nuanced yet focused with glimpses of tropical fruit though it never impedes. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, taut and fresh, precise and mineral-driven. There is an understated element in this "Monty" that is very appealing and it feels reassuringly persistent on the finish. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€6,944.39 -
