[SOLD-OUT] Bouchard Paddock & F De L'Enfant Jesus 2005

Jancis Robinson 17/20 points!
Beaune 1er Cru Grèves,Burgundy Superb fruit and spice aromas with an oaky note. Intense, full and yet delicate on the palate, the wine has a charming velvetiness. Very good ageing potential.The Wine Advocate Such is Bouchard's pride in their 2005 Beaune Greves Vigne de L'Enfant Jesus and the monopole in which it grew, that they presented this wine at the end of my tasting, following even the very tough (or rather, class) act of a Clos de Beze. Raspberry and strawberry preserves, wood smoke, and roasted meats dominate the nose and palate. There is no lack of stuffing, but also a silky texture and impressive refinement, leading to a satisfying finish that slights neither animal, mineral, nor fruit.
