Tasting Notes

A cool and highly restrained nose reluctantly offers up its array of citrus, tidal pool, quinine and oyster shell. The exceptionally rich, even opulent, medium-weight plus flavors also brim with sappy dry extract on the mineral-driven, powerful and remarkably long finish. This is perhaps slightly less elegant than it typically is, but it is seriously good all the same. Buy it.

Score: 95

Not racked. Slightly younger vines than the regular Bougros but the site is so different, on the steepest of slopes dropping down to the road. Intensity more than detail on the nose, then the usual piercing volume of fresh white fruit on the palate, a little touch of liquorice, quite good length. Drink from 2027-2034. Tasted: June 2022

Score: 92 - 94

The 2021 Chablis Bougros Côte Bouguerots Grand Cru, which was cropped at just 17hl/ha this year, has an intriguing bouquet with hints of peach skin and honeysuckle, the precocity of this parcel seeping through as it opens up. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, taut and fresh, quite linear with hints of orange pith and even a dab of ginger towards the spicy, energetic finish. Excellent.

Score: 93 - 95
