Domaine Jean-Marc Brocard is a private vineyard wholly owned by the Brocard family. The Grand Cru of Bougros is located at the north-western edge of the hillside containing all the Chablis Grand Cru vineyards. Stylistically, it offers wines that are generally fatter/weightier than the other Grand Cru.
Appearance: Pale yellow with silvery glints
Nose: Expressive, with toasted, floral and sweet spice
Palate: Notes of citrus leaf and tangerine A taut and powerful wine with refined minerality
"Ripe green fruit aromas are laced with hints of spice, wood and oyster shell. There is excellent volume and mid-palate density to the tension-filled big-bodied flavors that evident a taut muscularity on the balanced, long, compact and lemony finale. This is a quality Bougros that is built to reward mid-term cellaring."
