Marks and reviews

/100

Decanter

Bouchard owns just over 1ha of this climat, located in the southern section of Nuits. The wine has robust dark berry fruit, with a brambly edge and an appealing, slightly rustic character. On the palate it is plump and approachable, if lacking a bit of structure. Produced with about one-third whole clusters and aged in around 50% new wood.

James Suckling

A juicy, flavorful red with berry, chocolate, and hazelnut. Some earth, too. Medium-bodied with a tight, layered palate that shows firmness and focus from the polished tannins. Flavorful finish. Holding back. Drink in 2023 and onwards.

Neal Martin

The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Cailles 1er Cru contrasts with its peers in this flight, as it comes across much simpler in style. It is clearly delineated but missing a bit of personality. The palate is medium-bodied with maybe slightly more extraction than necessary, although the acidic spine keeps it bound together, and there is an appealing savory element on the finish. This is not a long-term proposition, though I like what feels like whole bunch addition on the aftertaste. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Description

The aromatic finesse and elegance of a Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru wine

The estate

Founded in 1731 in Beaune, Bouchard Père & Fils is one of the oldest wine houses in Burgundy. For nearly three centuries, 9 generations have succeeded one another with the ambition of creating an exceptional estate in Burgundy.

Gradually built up over the years, the vineyards of the Bouchard Père et Fils estate now cover 130 hectares of vines. Combining prestigious appellations with exceptional plots, the Bouchard Père & Fils vineyard is the embodiment of a unique wine heritage in Burgundy.

The vineyard

The 2019 Bouchard Père & Fils Cuvée "Les Cailles" is a Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er cru wine that stems from a 1.08-hectare vineyard located in the southern part of the eponymous commune. Remarkable for the elegance of its wines, this east/south-east facing terroir rests on limestone soil.

Vinification and ageing

The grapes are harvested manually and sorted before being partially or totally destemmed, depending on the vintage. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in small containers with a gentle pressing. Depending on the vintage, the vatting time varies from 12 to 15 days. The wine is aged for 10 to 18 months in French oak barrels (60 to 85% of which are new) in the Bastions cellars of the old Château de Beaune.
