About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Pinot NoirBurgundy, FranceBouchard Clos Vougeot is a wine taken from vineyards on land that was donated to the Cistercian monks in 1110. They kept the prized land until the French Revolution and today the 50 hectares of vineyard land is owned by 80 vineyard owners. The perfect example of a Burgundy appelltation. Bouchard's Pinot Noir from this exhaulted and prized patch of dirt has an intensely floral nose of rose petal and violets, red berry and earthy nuances that merge into fresh, pure and detailed flavours including an attractive mineral streak and a super long finish.

There is a bit more wood in evidence in this domaine cuvée and the fruit, while similar, is slightly riper as well that leads to somewhat bigger, rich, fuller and more densely textured flavors that possess excellent power and plenty of dry extract that buffers the firm tannins on the deeper and equally austere fruit. Both examples are lovely though not surprisingly, there is just a bit more here.
