بوشار أينيه، بومار 1er Cru 'Les Charmots' 2018، بورغوندي

Opened this after a long week and the nose hit me immediately—that kirsch note is just gorgeous. The palate is exactly as promised, soft and fleshy, and it paired beautifully with a simple roast chicken. Worth every penny for a special occasion.

I usually lean toward bigger Burgundies, but the soft, fleshy structure here made it incredibly easy to drink right away. The cinnamon and clove on the finish gave it an unexpected warmth that paired beautifully with a simple roast chicken.

That kirsch and black fruit nose is exactly as described, and the cinnamon-clove finish lingers beautifully. It's soft and fleshy on the palate, which made it dangerously easy to finish the bottle in one sitting.
