Note di degustazione
Apple, lemon and spice. No oak influence apparent, and the fruit is very tightly woven. Certainly a wine of big dimensions – but it needs time to become properly eloquent. (RH)

The 2015 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros comes from vines enjoying a southwest and south exposure. That said, it was broody and closed when I tasted it, though digging the snout in deeper you can eke out scents of cockleshell and fresh mussels. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity. There is fine definition here, quite saline in the mouth with a crisp, lightly spiced finish that continues that estuarine theme. It cries out for a huge mountain of fruits de mer!
Pale yellow. Aromas of crushed stone, mint and spices. Rich and powerful but youthfully taut, conveying an impression of higher acidity than most of the estate's premier crus but also an intriguing exotic quality to the very ripe flavors of peach, pineapple, apricot, lemon and lichee. Thick but not sloppy, this fruit-driven grand cru spreads out to saturate the palate without leaving any impression of heaviness. Will this wine tighten up and gain in clarity with further élevage?
