Bouchard Aîné & Fils – La Mazière 2019 – Fixin

The nose is fruity and offers a small concentration as well as a fine intensity. It reveals notes of small ripe wild red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant), violet, small notes of iris associated with small touches of blackberry as well as a subtle hint of racy minerality, cassis bud and a discreet hint of fresh spices (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced, slightly tight and offers juiciness, suavity, a small tension as well as a small fat and dynamism. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy cherry, pulpy/juicy redcurrant, small notes of fresh violet associated with a touch of fresh iris, nutmeg as well as hints of racy minerality and a very discreet hint of sweet spices.
