Produced from a vineyard that abuts Volnay's famous Clos des Chenes, the medium-to-dark ruby-colored Monthelie Les Champs-Fulliots possesses a beguiling nose of fresh herbs, minerals, and perfume. It also possesses a medium-to-full-bodied, fresh and lively character loaded with ripe and juicy blackberries and traces of garrigue (the sun roasted wild herbs of Provence) flavors. Its long finish reveals supple tannins that should provide excellent structure for mid-term aging. Projected maturity: now-2004.
Bouchard's qualitative resurgence continues. It is extremely gratifying to see the efforts put forth by Joseph Henriot, this negociant's new owner and the talented duo of Misters Hervet and Prost, respectively the firm's director and wine-maker.
