Bouchard Père & Fils Les Marconnets Beaune 1er Cru 2006

Firm and tense, this is a wine on the high wire. The tannins are stretched with acidity, the berry fruits and red cherry flavors vividly standing out against this structure. The aftertaste is fine, poised, mineral. This is developing into an important wine. Editors’ Choice. Score – 92. (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Dec. 31, 2008)
