Corton 2005

Bouchard Père et Fils

Côte de Beaune, Grand Cru

Excellent levels and appearance, owc slightly damp affected; Excellents niveaux et apparence, caisse bois légèrement tachée par l'humidité

Matured in 100% new oak. Amazing wine. So much body and grip. Glorious and classy. The richness is totally underpinned by marvellous acidity. Again, at 5 years old, this was pure joy. A nostalgic, almost smoky bouquet. Pure redcurrants on the palate, with a lovely gummy taste. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
