Critics Scores
Wilfred Wong of Wine.com
Corton is one of the most elegant of the appellations in the Côte de Beaune, and the 2017 Bouchard Père & Fils is what it is supposed to be. TASTING NOTES: This wine bright, lively, and lasting. Its aromas and flavors of zesty red fruits should pair it well with grilled salmon. (Tasted: March 14, 2019, San Francisco, CA)
Wine Spectator
Rich, featuring juicy cherry, plum and smoky oak aromas and flavors. The vibrant structure keeps this fresh and drives the long aftertaste, where a graphite element emerges. Shows excellent balance and complexity. Best from 2022 through 2040.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2017 Le Corton Grand Cru is showing very well, and I evidently underestimated it when I tasted it earlier this year. Opening in the glass with aromas of sweet berries, cloves, smoked meats and coniferous forest floor, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a textural and enveloping attack, a sapid core of fruit and a savory finish. Today, the wine's tannins are already supple and melting.
James Suckling
The aromas are briary and fragrant, offering plenty of red flowers and red berries. The power here is also impressive and there’s a very regal air to the tannins. Long and fine, very transparent and delicate. The exposure and altitude here gives good and slow ripening to high maturity. Try from 2023.

Like several of the wines in the range, this lacks a bit of aromatic freshness on the red currant, sauvage and wood-suffused nose. The rich, supple and round middle weight flavors are surprisingly forward compared to how this wine is typically structured, all wrapped in an acceptably lingering finish. While perfectly OK, I found this to be somewhat disappointing relative to its usual quality as it's often one of Bouchard's best wines.
