The 2020 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru is a tour de force of Chardonnay. On the nose, delicate aromas of citrus oil, tangerine, musky peach, nutmeg, and a whisper of buttered popcorn unfurl beautifully. The palate is vibrant yet polished—pure white stone fruit meets electrifying acidity and a sappy, mineral finish that feels woven with energy. Critics lauded its coiled intensity and elegance: Neal Martin awarded it 98 points, describing boundless energy and terroir clarity, while James Suckling crowned it 100 points, likening it to a “fully wound Breguet watch.” 

Bouchard Père & Fils, founded in 1785 and deeply woven into Burgundy’s history, stands today as one of the Côte d’Or’s largest vineyard owners with 130 hectares, including 12 classified Grand Crus. The estate, now under the stewardship of Artémis Domaines, excels at embodying terroir authenticity across its holdings—including parcels in iconic sites like Chevalier-Montrachet. Its legacy spans centuries of winemaking excellence, combining heritage and precision.
