This is blessed with buckets of sap that completely buffer the firm acid spine. \u003cb\u003eThis is a flat out great effort that is indisputably a \"wow\" wine.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e  \u003ci\u003e96 points\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Verdana\" size=\"-2\"\u003eStephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, July\/August 2009\u003c\/font\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Verdana\" size=\"-1\"\u003e(domain wine) Pale lemon-yellow color. Crushed stone, white pepper, mint, licorice, cumin, minerals and white flowers on the very ripe yet vibrant nose. Rich and broad on entry, then explosive in the middle palate, saturating the mouth without giving any impression of weight, thanks to vibrant floral and citrus flavors and penetrating acidity. A great grand cru with finishing flavors that expand to coat the palate and teeth. This seemed more tactile and voluminous after I spit it (okay, swallowed it). \u003cb\u003eI don't recall a better vintage for this cuvee.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e  \u003ci\u003e95 points\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Verdana\" size=\"-2\"\u003eJohn Gilman's View from the Cellar, Nov\/Dec 2009\u003c\/font\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Verdana\" size=\"-1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe 2008 Côte de Bougerots is also superb,\u003c\/b\u003e as it soars from the glass in a complex aromatic mélange of lime, apple, a touch of white cherry, chalky minerality and a topnote of apple blossoms. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, long and complex, with a rock solid core of fruit, impeccable balance and great length and grip on the racy and perfectly focused finish. \u003cb\u003eAnother tour de force.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003e  \u003ci\u003e94+ points\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vins Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46037315453167,"sku":"2530","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/7140\/9135\/files\/fevre_cotebouguerots2022-LBL_a1404f9d-999e-4810-9543-6dae6bb818dd.png?v=1772598781","url":"https:\/\/vinsrare.com\/products\/2008-fevre-chablis-bougros-cote-bourguerots","provider":"Vins Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
