Tasting notes
Bouchard's 2018 Blanc de Noirs Les Ursules is a particular success, wafting from the glass with aromas of white flowers, crisp red apple, clear honey, wet stones and crushed mint. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and precise, it's pure, racy and concentrated, with impressive tension and finesse that transcends this frequently blowsy, open-knit vintage. Exigent agronomy and timely harvesting pays off, once again.

The 2018 Blanc de Noirs Les Ursules is wild, almost exotic in this release. Intense floral and tropical overtones through a core of Pinot fruit. Creamy and expansive, the Ursules is so giving today. Time in the glass offers layers of orchard fruit, lemon confit, marzipan and dried flowers. The 2018 is super-impressive. Disgorged: 2022.
