Bouchard Bourgogne Rouge 2009
Earthier, savory, with spicy greens and bright but ripened acids that call for salty cured meats, this is fragrant of many red fruits but also harbors the gout de terroir in a way seldom seen on an appellation Burgundy. Leave it to Bouchard to wield such magic. Want a tasty red Burgundy to enjoy on a regular basis? Here’s a bottle of such an otherwise elusive quarry.
