Benefiting from our long-standing relationship with the estate, this exclusive selection features top-rated Red and White Burgundies from Bouchard's vast mosaic of vineyard holdings, including many appellations' top-scoring wines of the vintage in a range of formats from 375ml to magnums. From an entry level 90pt Red Burgundy bargain ready to enjoy now to a 100pt "perfect" Grand Cru White promising years of evolving pleasure ahead, these spectacular 2019 Bouchard Pere & Fils Burgundy selections come from a vintage that "hit the bullseye" according to critic James Suckling, offering a "rare combination of excellence and great consistency."
Founded in 1731, the esteemed Bouchard Pere & Fils manages 130 hectares of vineyards of which 74 are classified as 1er Cru with 12 hectares classified as Grand Cru, producing a vast array of wines all crafted with the same meticulous attention to detail by talented Cellar Master Frédéric Weber since 2013. Beginning with the Reds, the 90pt 2019 Bourgogne Pinot Noir Reserve is one of the top values of the vintage crafted for immediate enjoyment, boasting "pleasant harmony" with "good depth and length" according to James Suckling, while the 94pt 2019 Beaune Clos de la Mousse is "as fine a young Clos de la Mousse" that critic William Kelley has "ever tasted," from a singular 1er Cru Monopole owned exclusively by Bouchard since 1872. From the legendary parcel under Bouchard ownership for over a century, the 2019 Beaune Grèves Vigne de l'Enfant Jésus 1er Cru "feels like a thoroughbred ready to run" according to the Wine Spectator's Bruce Sanderson while James Suckling describes the 96pt 2019 Bouchard Le Corton Grand Cru as "powerful yet sleek," ready to evolve over the next decades and available in a variety of formats including cellar-worthy magnums.
Bouchard's 2019 White Burgundy includes the the gorgeous 100pt 2019 Bouchard Chevalier Montrachet promises a "brilliant future" according to the Wine Advocate's William Kelley, offered exclusively in rarely available magnums for Burgundy collectors to cellar and enjoy over the next decade.
Crafted in a challenging but exceptional vintage, Bouchard had significantly lower yields in 2019 than prior years, so Burgundy fans and collectors will want to dive in and secure their allocation of these outstanding Bouchard Burgundy selections today, at best on the market pricing. |

Fragrant with violet, black cherry, black currant, licorice, iron and spice, this is both powerful and restrained, with a supple texture and solid structure that are beautifully aligned. The aftertaste lingers with echoes of dark fruit, mineral and spice. Best from 2024 through 2042. 100 cases imported.

Powerful yet sleek with effusive, ripe black-cherry character. Silky front palate, then the serious tannins come through. No hint of the rusticity and edginess that you sometimes get from this appellation. More than enough fruit to make a completely convincing package. Bold finish. Drink or hold.

The 2019 Le Corton Grand Cru confirms its superb showing from barrel, blossoming in the glass with scents of wild berries, peonies, violets, blood orange and warm spices. Medium to full-bodied, sumptuous and enveloping, with melting tannins, beautiful purity of fruit and lively balancing acids, it's long and perfumed, concluding with a saline, rose-inflected finish. I have never tasted a Corton from Bouchard that was so good, so young.
