Bouchard Père & Fils Monthélie 2019

This is made with grapes from a domaine-owned parcel near the village in a lieu-dit called Le Meix de Mypont. Perfumed and aromatic, the nose is redolent of violets and high-toned red berry fruit. On the palate, however, there is good ripeness and depth of flavour to the fruit. Not hugely substantial, but this is well balanced and elegant, with lots of finesse. Drinking window: 2021-2029. Score – 91. (Charles Curtis, MW, decanter.com, Oct. 23, 2020)
