"Bouchard's NV (2008) Blanc de Blancs Roses de Jeanne Ursules is a mid-weight, precise Champagne layered with green apples, pears, jasmine, spices and minerals. There is a somewhat ethereal quality to the 2008 Ursules I find highly appealing. The signature Bouchard precision is amply evident throughout, leading to a kaleidoscopic, thrilling finish. This tastes very much like 2008 still wines did in barrel, and my guess is that it will require at least a few years in bottle to offer its finest drinking. The wine kept improving in the glass, pointing to a very bright future. Simply put, this is a fabulous Ursules. Disgorged July, 2010."
