2021 Beaune, 1er Cru Clos Saint Landry Blanc, Domaine Bouchard Pere et Fils (6 x Bottle)

Bouchard has owned this 1.98-hectare monopole since 1791, believed to be one of the original plantings of Chardonnay in Beaune dating back to the 13th Century. Facing southeast, it’s a site with high maturity potential, and it’s important to harvest at the optimal moment to find the balance between freshness and opulence. Fresh apricot on the nose, refreshed by bracing acidity and a stony, saline minerality on the palate. This historical Beaune Premier Cru excelled in 2021. Drink 2023-2031

The 2021 Beaune 1er Cru Clos Saint-Landry Blanc 1er Cru had just been racked and transferred into foudres. This is promising, with attractive orchard fruit, hints of white tea and camomile on the nose. The palate is well balanced with a crisp bead of acidity, fresh and tensile with orange pith and wild peach towards the finish. It will just need a few months in bottle.
