The 2020 Bouchard Père & Fils Saint-Aubin Premier Cru is an elegant white Burgundy crafted from Chardonnay grown in the limestone-rich Premier Cru vineyards of Saint-Aubin. Produced by one of Burgundy's most respected houses, it showcases exceptional freshness, purity and mineral finesse, offering outstanding value within the Côte de Beaune. The nose is bright and expressive, revealing aromas of white peach, pear and lemon zest, complemented by notes of citrus blossom, toasted hazelnut, flint and subtle French oak.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with vibrant natural acidity and a beautifully textured, silky mouthfeel, delivering flavours of ripe stone fruit, grapefruit and lemon curd layered with hints of roasted almond, delicate oak spice and refined mineral complexity. The finish is long, fresh and beautifully balanced, combining richness with precision and elegance.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Premier Cru Saint-Aubin for lovers of refined Chardonnay seeking freshness, finesse and authentic Côte de Beaune character. Enjoy after a short decant or cellar confidently over the next 8–12 years. Ideal with grilled lobster, scallops, roast chicken, creamy seafood dishes or mature Comté cheese.
