Allen Meadows - Score: 92-95 (43617)

An ultra-pure, discreet and distinctly airy nose offers up notes of citrus, green apple, matchstick and hints of acacia and hazelnut. The sophisticated, intense and lilting middle weight flavors are finer still and a bit more mineral-inflected as well before concluding in a strikingly long if almost delicate finish. As all really good examples of Bouchères are, this is a gorgeous combination of finesse and class. Marvelous.
