Its Origins
Today the Burgundian wine domaine of Bouchard Pere et Fils can trace its origins back to 1731, though it is no longer family owned. In 1995 the Champagne house Joseph Henriot acquired the company and quality has risen as a consequence. Bouchard is led by Stéphane Follin Arbelet, while the wines are made by Philippe Prost - who has been with the company since 1978. An impressive gravity-flow winery on the Route de Savigny, the Cuvérie St Vincent, was completed in 2005 and enables them to process all their wines with optimum efficiency. Bouchard’s total holdings comprise 130 hectares, including 12ha of grand crus and 74ha of premier crus, which makes them the largest vineyard owners in the Côte d’Or.
What The Critics Say
90-92/100 Parker's Wine Advocate, William Kelley
"Aromas of red berries mingled with rose petals, baking spices and orange zest introduce the 2021 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Lavières, a medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless wine that's lively and elegant, representing another fine rendition of a cuvée that's a perennial sleeper chez Bouchard."
