Bouchard Père et Fils
Les Clous Meursault Chardonnay
The 2019 Beaune Blanc du Chateau 1er Cru offers candied orange peel, vanilla pod and light almond scents on the nose, a slight melioration compared to its showing in barrel. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, a slightly waxy texture, bitter lemon, orange pith and peach skin, leading to a cohesive finish. After a stuttering start, this has found its groove. Tasted at the Bouchard Père tasting in London. (Neal Martin, Vinous, March 2023)
