Lovely acidity with a fleeting finish. — 3 years ago
This wine has bright acidity, notes of citrus, green apples, yellow pears and white flowers. Which went very
well with the grill fennel with mustard seeds sauce and prosciutto, sweet potatoes, portobella mushrooms and skirt steak which was season with just salt, pepper and some mustard seeds. This wine is very well structured and the flavors are intense with earthy and mineral driving finish which went great side by side the stake. — 4 years ago
A favorite winery of mine... This one needs a little more bottle age, or a splash decant... A muted nose opened to crisp honeycomb apple, ginger root, and a toasty brioche character. Feels like bit of lees influence too. Round, layered, and soft on the palate with yellow apple, pear and melon rind. Bright acidity shines on the mid-palate with a limestone crouch to the finish. Hold this for a few more years. — 6 years ago
Absolutely delicious, peachy honey, liquid gold. Fab with a mince pie and cream. — 7 years ago

A particularly great vintage for La Haute Lemblé, a gentle decant reveals its expressive core of rich and ripe stone fruit, hazelnuts, pastry cream and a liquid rock minerality. The forwardness and power of the vintage puts everything on the table. The palate shows great tension, racy acids, a soft texture and an incredible crystalline purity. Such special and singular wines. — 3 years ago
Liquid gold, drank this June of 2018, very dark gold, loads of honey, apricot, fig, nearly perfect — 7 years ago
Delicious stuff. Thick and unctuous. A wine you could swear could not possibly be so light colored and fresh. What? Those crazy blueberry flavors out of this light gold liquid? No way!
What a treat. — 7 years ago
Liquid Gold — 8 years ago
First time trying any of the new releases (and new labels 😏) from Bouchard. Starting at the top with the super rare old vine 100% Pinot Blanc Lieu-dit, La Bolorée. 2018 has been an early approachable vintage across many regions, and La Bolorée although obviously young, is plenty giving with some air. It is its texture and density that stand out the most, really such an incredible mouthfeel. Vinous, ultra concentrated and incredibly elegant, a rightful Zalto Burgundy wafts its layers of ripe orchard fruit, citrus oils, bread yeast, white flowers, gun smoke and liquid rock minerality. Its textural palate keeps gaining in volume and intensity, and finishes long with a seamless balance of racy citrusy acids and minerality. To age beautifully, indeed. — 2 years ago
