2018 Beaune, 1er Cru Greves, Vigne de l’Enfant Jesus, Domaine Bouchard Pere et Fils (1 x Double Magnum)

France Burgundy Cote de Beaune

The 2018 Beaune Les Grèves Vigne de L'Enfant Jesus 1er Cru, from the 3.9-hectare monopole in Grèves, has a lovely, floral, very pure bouquet that frankly puts Bouchard’s other Beaune Premier Crus in their place. The medium-bodied palate delivers supple tannin, fine acidity and pure black cherry and blueberry fruit with wonderful details on the finish. This is very classy and punches with many more expensive Premier Crus in the Côte de Nuits.

Vinous

The 2018 Beaune Grèves Vigne de L’Enfant Jesus 1er Cru has an attractive bouquet with brambly red and black fruit, fine definition, somehow a little sedate yet harmonious and appealing. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip and fine backbone. The oak impedes slightly towards the finish though that will be absorbed with another couple of years in bottle. Fine. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.
