Domaine Bouchard Père & Fils Meursault Genevrières 1er Cru 1999
Meursault, Côte de Beaune, Côte d'Or, Burgundy, FranceThe Genevrières vineyard is one of the top premiers crus of Meursault, and the portion owned by Bouchard Père & Fils is located in the parcel considered the most desirable (Genevrières-Dessus). It has an attractive citrus, toasty lees, pear, nutty apple and mineral aromas with light floral and cream notes. Good acidity and balance with mineral, pear, citrus, baked apple flavours and buttery spicy toast finish. Round and dry with crispness but body. Very elegant styling. Could use two to fours years in bottle to fully round out.Tasted: 01 September 2000Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $80.00 | 750ml | Speculative - Grady Wine Marketing |
