2018 Bouchard Pere et Fils Beaune Clos du Roi 1er Cru

Since the 1700s, the historic Bouchard winery has been assembling one of the greatest collections of properties in Burgundy. Their 2020 Clos du Roi Beaune Premier Cru is a stunning bottle from a Premier Cru site noted for its well-draining rocky slopes and the perfectly ripe, full-bodied wines it puts forth.

Enchanting and elegant, with a lively ruby core in the glass. The aromas are led by a bounty of wild blackberries accented by roses, vanilla, clove, and Earl Grey tea. The palate is equally exciting, with a rich fruit core with spice and layers of energetic acidity and a long-lasting finish.
