Chablis Grand Cru Bougros 2018

A background application of wood surrounds notably phenolic elements (think olive oil nuances) together with aromas of both white and yellow orchard fruit that are nuanced by iodine and sea breeze wisps. I very much like the intensity of the solidly constituted medium weight plus flavors that deliver excellent length on the rustic, bold and muscular finish. This is still a bit raw but the underlying material is impressive.

About Burghound.com

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
