Bouchard Aine & Fils Puligny-Montrachet 2022

 

Bouchard Aîné & Fils is a large Burgundy negociant based in Beaune, with cellars in the 18th Century Hôtel du Conseiller du Roy. The company dates back as far as the 1730s, when Michel Bouchard settled in Burgundy to set up a fabric business, before branching out into wine. By the 1860s it was trading across Europe and into the French colonies of Algeria and Vietnam.

Grape Varietal: 100% Chardonnay

Wine Region: Puligny-Montrachet, Burgundy, France

Tasting Notes: A golden colour with green tinges. Very floral: honeysuckle, acacia and jasmine, with a touch of grilled almonds. A generous, lively attack. There is a superb balance in this wine with good freshness. The finish has a long after-taste with light vanilla nuances. 

Food Pairing: Chicken in a cream sauce, smoked salmon or shellfish
