The 2020 Bouchard Père & Fils Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a powerful white Burgundy Chardonnay showing lemon, white peach and ripe pear with hazelnut, white flowers and fine stony mineral notes.
On the palate, it is rich yet precise, with vibrant acidity balancing a broad, creamy texture. Citrus, orchard fruit and subtle nutty characters lead into a long, dry and mineral-driven finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Chardonnay collectors seeking depth, structure and classic Grand Cru Burgundy. Best enjoyed from 2027–2040. Serve lightly chilled with butter-poached marron, roast turbot, seared scallops with brown butter or chicken with morel mushrooms.
