Pinot Noir
Jean Bouchard Gevrey-Chambertin 2018
Enjoy it now or cellar for up to 10 years. Decanting is optional, up to 30 minutes before serving.
Now operating under the Maison Albert Bichot umbrella, wines have been sold under the Jean Bouchard name for a century and a half. When they bought the winery in 1955, the Bichot family brought a wealth of expertise and investment, modernizing its facilities and expanding its vineyards significantly.
Over the years, the winery has gained a reputation for producing terroir-driven wines that express the unique character of the region. When it comes to exploring all of the intricacies of Burgundy wine, Jean Bouchard is a vital name to look out for. This offering from Gevrey-Chambertin is composed of 100% Pinot Noir and shows a strong, almost muscular character that is typical of the appellation.
Deep ruby red in the glass, this wine begins with a thick bouquet of red and black fruits, such as plum and cherry. It leans towards being medium/full-bodied, showcasing a certain juiciness and a high acidity on the palate. The fruit flavours are complex and harmonious, supported by a distinct minerality, which comes to the fore at the finish. This is a characterful wine, with enough tannic structure to take on heavier cuts of meat, such as braised beef, or delicate game like a rabbit. You can also pair it with some classic cheeses, such as Comté or Gruyère.
