Bouchard Père & Fils is one of the oldest estates in Burgundy and their 2015 Bonnes Mares offers true Grand Cru depth and concentration with an intense nose of berry fruits and earthen minerality. On the palate is great weight of fruit offset by vibrant acidity and lacy tannic framework.
Vinous
(from vines on red clay soil in the middle of this large grand cru): Dark red with ruby tones. Very ripe aromas of blueberry, violet and spicy oak, along with suggestions of exotic fruits. Plush and fat with fruit, conveying an extravagant impression of sucrosité--and rather low acidity--to its flavors of cherry liqueur and chocolate. This wine will need time in bottle to burn off some of its substantial baby fat. Finishes with substantial dusty tannins and a repeating chocolatey quality (one of the two barrels was new) that's a bit overbearing today. A rather exaggerated style of 2015 but many tasters will swoon for its sweetness and richness.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2017

Bouchard Pere et Fils

Timeless legacy in Burgundy’s heart

Established in 1731, Maison Bouchard Père & Fils is one of the oldest and largest wine estates in the Côte d’Or. In 1995, the estate was acquired by the Henriot family, whose portfolio also includes William Fèvre, Beaux Frères, Château de Poncié and Champagne Henriot. Bouchard boasts vineyard holdings totalling approximately 130 hectares, including 74ha of Premiers Crus and 12ha of Grand Crus, with as many as 450 different individual plots. While the maison’s vast mosaic of holdings are weighted towards the Côte de Beaune, the Côte de Nuits is also a major focus.

The maison’s original vineyard was purchased by Joseph Bouchard in Volnay Les Caillerets in 1775. Not long after Beaune Grèves Vigne de l’Enfant Jesus followed. Now one of four Bouchard monopole vineyards, Beaune Grèves Vignes de l’Enfant Jésus was once owned by the Carmelite order of nuns and is the source of Bouchard’s flagship wine. Bouchard’s extensive suite of wines is produced and aged at the state-of-the-art, gravity-fed Cuverie Saint Vincent in Savigny-lès-Beaune. Once bottled, the wines are stored beneath the historic Château de Beaune, built in the 15th century by King Louis XI and purchased by Bernard Bouchard in 1820.

With almost 300 years of savoir-faire, from its unrivalled multiplicity of terroirs, Bouchard stands as one of the most eminent names in Burgundy winemaking.
