Bouchard Père & Fils Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru 2018 (1.5-Liter)

James Suckling : 96 Points

(8/19/2020) Plum, orange-peel and dried-meat aromas follow through to a full body, yet it’s so tight and polished with long, persistent tannins that give the wine wonderful depth and character. Still tightly wound. Give this until after 2023 to show it all.

Wine Spectator : 93 Points

(12/31/2020) Flavors of black cherry, black currant, earth and spice are draped onto the elegant frame of this red. Its structure lends grip on the compact finish, while the oak is pretty dominant now. Needs time. Best from 2023 through 2038. 50 cases imported.
