Bouchard Beaune Clos de la Mousse 2020
Description
Bouchard Père et Fils Beaune Clos de la Mousse is a full-bodied Burgundy red wine from the Premier Cru of Clos de la Mousse in the Côte de Beaune. Owned by the Henriot family since 1995, Bouchard Père & Fils is one of France’s oldest wine estates with a history that spans nearly three centuries. It is also one of the largest landowners in Burgundy, with vineyard holdings totalling approximately 130 hectares. Clos de la Mousse has been the monopoly of Bouchard Père & Fils since 1872. The appellation produces a single red wine with fruity aromas, combined with light toasty notes on the nose. The palate is fleshy, but also refined and delicate.
“The 2020 Beaune Clos de la Mousse 1er Cru, a monopole on dense clay soils, offers dark chocolate infused red fruit on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied with grain tannins, slightly tarry in style with that dark chocolate resurfacing towards the chalky-textured finish. Fine.”
