Note di degustazione
100% Chardonnay from 4 different Premier Cru sites belonging to the Domaine: Aigrots, Tuvilains, Sizies and Sur les Grèves. Bouchard Père et Fils have been producing Beaune du Château, an exclusivity of the house, since 1907 and only 7% of Beaune is produced as white wine. Vines are 20 – 25 years old, planted on pebbly marl and limestone and were hand-harvested and meticulously sorted. Matured in French oak barrels for 8 – 12 months with further bottle age in the cellars of the Bastion of the ancient Château du Beaune. Winemaker Philippe Prost. TA 5.77 g/l, pH 3.24, RS 1.4 g/l. Pale green gold. Not much nose. It is recognisably burgundy and savoury (not New World over-oaked or over-alcoholic) and quite chewy. Correct but not a great buy. Neat, long finish though. (JR)

Mid crimson. Reticent, slightly peppery fruit on the nose. Firm but pretty fluid across the palate. Not very expressive at the moment, fruit hidden by the structure but it's there underneath. And the finish is surprisingly juicy. (JH)
Good bright red-ruby. Reduced, slightly rustic redcurrant nose comes across as a bit dull today. Sweet and plump but reduced and lacking definition. Finishes with sullen tannins. The barrel portion of this wine had not yet been racked. Not a great showing.
