Bouchard Aine & Fils 'Collection' Pinot Gris douro-doc Flavours of ripe berries

Flavours of ripe berries

while the dark red fruit follows a flowing mouthfeel – again

They remind Michel of both 1966 and 1978

The oak component is unobtrusive yet critical to the overall aroma and flavour texture

Powerful and explosive it contains all the energy of the hot vintage while maintaining a surprising freshness

Bouchard Aine & Fils 'Collection' Pinot Gris douro-doc Flavours of ripe berriesBouchard Aine & Fils 2018 vintage release of their Pinot Gris is a brilliant beautiful golden colour with delicious aromas of exotic fruits (banana) and wild flowers. The palate is ample and generous, with again the exotic fruits and citrus (lemon) notes. A very good length in the mouth, yet with a beautiful sense of tension. Light and pleasant hazelnuts hints on the finish with a smooth, rich aftertaste. A very elegant wine of great finesse.
