The 2022 Bouchard Père & Fils Puligny-Montrachet Chalumeaux Premier Cru is a refined Chardonnay from Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, showing lemon, white peach and pear with white flowers, hazelnut and fine mineral notes.
On the palate, it is elegant and finely textured, with vibrant acidity supporting citrus and orchard fruit alongside subtle nutty and savoury characters. A stony mineral edge adds definition to the long, dry and persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Chardonnay drinkers who enjoy precise, mineral-driven white Burgundy. Best enjoyed from 2027–2037. Serve lightly chilled with seared scallops, grilled marron, roast turbot with beurre blanc or chicken with morel mushrooms.
