To the west of the Grand Cru hillside, Grand Cru Bougros is sheltered from the wind: it stretches out on a steeper, south-facing slope. This location on the hillside is particularly clement and the hours of sunshine are intense.
The nose is complex, with notes of chalk, honeysuckle and fresh butter. Full-bodied and rich from the outset. Very good length!
Pair with marinated salmon, samphire and calamansi, or zucchini risotto with old parmesan and pistou.
Burghound 90: There is more evident Chablis character to the mineral reduction, iodine, sea breeze and citrus nuances. The very round, supple and quite forward medium-bodied flavors possess more obvious power on the dry, focused and lingering citrus-tinged finish that tightens up as it sits on the palate. This too would benefit considerably from developing more depth as it's currently a bit one-dimensional.
