Product information "Bouchard Finlayson Tête de Cuvée 2021"
The Bouchard Finlayson Tête de Cuvée presents the selection of only the finest Pinot Noir barrels of each vintage. Pinot Noir is a unique grape variety, which brings on the one hand a delicate delicacy and on the other hand opulence and fullness. This masterpiece flows into the glass from a deep dark colour and exudes a wonderfully complex bouquet of ripe blueberries and juicy plums as well as beguiling hints of fine spices and fragrant espressos. A wine with a firm and opulent body. In the finish lush tannin with a wonderfully balanced finish. An incredibly complex wine! Broad and long lasting in the finish. Its great structure and its lasting harmonious layers of velvety tannins promise many years of complex development and unfolding.

The fermentation of the grapes took place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine was put into French oak barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine matured for a total of 16 months in new French barriques, 87% of which were new wood. Only the best barrels are used for this first-class cuvée to create a collector's wine of the highest quality.
