Bouchard Père & Fils 2019 Volnay Premier Cru “Les Taillepieds”
Crafted in Volnay’s revered Premier Cru vineyards within Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, this 2019 Pinot Noir embodies finesse and aging potential. Sourced from Bouchard’s exclusive 45-acre domaine parcel, it captures the essence of a stellar vintage celebrated by critics—scoring 94/100 from Burghound and 93/100 from Wine Advocate.
Terroir-Driven Sophistication
Expect layered aromas of poached plum, blackcurrant (cassis), and delicate baking spices, lifted by a refreshing acidity. On the palate, supple tannins frame concentrated flavors of dark berries, raw cocoa, and woodsmoke—delivering elegance without heaviness. The finish unfolds with impressive length and a poised austerity, hinting at superb evolution over 5–10 years.
Why Collectors Choose This Vintage
- Structure Meets Balance: Vibrant acidity cuts through rich fruit, creating a “muscular yet elegant” profile (Wine Advocate) ideal for cellaring.
- Critical Acclaim: Praised for its “verve and succulent punch” (Burghound), it stands among Burgundy’s finest age-worthy reds.
- Authentic Expression: Unfiltered intensity from limestone-rich soils defines this premier cru’s signature minerality.
At 13.5% ABV, this wine pairs beautifully with duck confit or mushroom risotto now but promises greater complexity by 2025+. Limited availability—secure bottles before this acclaimed vintage ascends further.
