Description

Renowned and respected as one of the finest producers in Burgundy, Bouchard Père et Fils has truly become an institution, known for the exceptional quality of their wines and the diversity of its many vineyards.

Founded in 1731, Bouchard Père et Fils has built up an estate of 130ha and, collectively, is the largest owner of Grand Crus (12ha) and Premier Crus (74ha) across the Côte d’Or Bouchard Père et Fils represents almost one hundred ‘climats’ or uniquely diverse vineyards, including prestigious monopoles such as ‘Beaune Grèves Vigne de l’Enfant Jésus’ and ‘Chevalier-Montrachet La Cabotte’.

Situated near the town of Beaune between 'Les Greves' and the 'Cote de la Mousse', Les Teurons is a vineyard famous for its class and harmony. Its situation on a hillock would explain its name which means 'the mount' in Celtic. Bouchard Pere & Fils acquired the first parcel here in 1791, completed in 1869 to obtain surface area of 2.41 hectares.

Review

A more deeply pitched nose features notes of poached plum, cassis and dark cherry. The appealingly textured middle weight flavors possess a refined mouthfeel thanks to the fine-grained tannins shaping the balanced, long and nicely complex finale. Note that this is sufficiently structured to reward a decade of keeping yet the mid-palate is supple enough to allow this to be approached on the younger side.

Tasting Profile

Palate
Red fruit aromas with an oaky note on the nose. Soft and generous on the palate, a lovely harmonious wine. Good ageing potential.
