Description

Bouchard Père et Fils is renowned for producing exceptional quality wines, and their Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 1.5L Magnum 2019 is no exception. This wine is made from grapes sourced from the prestigious Le Corton vineyard, which was acquired by Bouchard Père & Fils in 1909. The vineyard has a rare particularity of being planted with either pinot noir or chardonnay.

The magnum bottle size of this wine is also noteworthy. Magnum bottles contain 1.5 litres of wine, which is twice the volume of a standard 750ml bottle. The larger size of the bottle allows for a slower aging process, resulting in a wine that is more complex and well-rounded. Additionally, the magnum bottle size is visually appealing and adds to the overall presentation of the wine.

Bouchard Père & Fils is the third most important owner in Corton-Charlemagne, with 3.65 hectares of the prestigious vineyard. This wine is a testament to their expertise and dedication to producing exceptional wines that are highly sought after by wine enthusiasts around the world.

Review

This has quite pronounced vanilla oak, but has only just been bottled. As it aerates, notes of ripe pear, citrus and pineapple develop. Rich and creamy, this makes a bold statement, but also has lovely freshness that complements the generous body. Keeps pumping out the flavors for a long time at the finish. Drink or hold.
