2015 Domaine Bouchard Pere et Fils, Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru 1x750ml

Vinous 92

The 2015 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru has quite a precocious bouquet of ample white peach, citrus lemon, smoke and flint aromas that gather momentum in the glass. The palate is saline on the entry. There is fine depth here, and good tension, if not quite the complexity and precision of its peers on the finish. A fine Grand Cru if not a Chevalier from the top drawer. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (DIAM 10 closure) [Neal Martin, 13/11/2018]

Anticipated maturity: 2020-2035

Robert Parker 93

"The 2015 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru offers up a pretty bouquet of preserved lemon, citrus pith, toasted almonds and a subtle framing of new wood. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, glossy and cool, with impressive balance and a long, intense finish. This isn’t quite as searingly incisive or concentrated as Bouchard’s Chevalier-Montrachet La Cabotte, but it’s an excellent wine." [William Kelley, 27/04/2018]

Anticipated maturity: 2018-2030
