Wine Spectator

Bruce Sanderson

Lush and vibrant, exuding cherry and blueberry flavors, this ripe red is inviting yet deceptive in terms of structure. The tannins are wrapped in flesh and fruit for now, but should provide support over the next 10 to 15 years. Best from 2020 through 2033. 150 cases imported.

/100

Decanter

Unusually deep in colour, with a brooding nose of intense black fruits. Broad and fleshy, opulent and flamboyant, but also spicy and lively, showing energy and finesse. The tannins are ripe but still chewy. Complex, sturdy, very long. Biodynamic.

James Suckling

A 3.9-hectare plot in the center of Beaune-Grèves 1er Cru. A very impressive array of raspberries and red cherries, as well as pastry notes and young leather. Very fresh. The palate has terrific depth and detail, saturated plush fruits. A long red-cherry finish. Drink or hold.

Vinous

Stephen Tanzer

Bright, dark red. Pure, perfumed aromas of blackberry, menthol, violet and licorice, with a note of blood orange emerging with air. Rich, tactile, seamless and deep; a seriously ripe but vibrant wine with strong medicinal reserve to its densely packed flavors of black cherry, dark berries, spices, licorice and mineral notes. Darker in profile than Clos de la Mousse and distinctly firmer and more structured than that wine; no easy sweetness in this zesty Beaune. Finishes with a serious dusting of fine-grained tannins that reach the front teeth. Still a bit youthfully withdrawn, this wine will need at least a few years in bottle to expand. But a very strong vintage for this cuvée—and built for a graceful evolution in bottle.

La RVF

Endowed with a beautiful, dense and deep texture, with sap and élevage that suits it well, this wine stands out in the range. Give it time to come together.

A balanced and delicate red wine from Burgundy

The property

It was in Beaune, in 1731, that the Maison Bouchard Père & Fils was founded. Accumulating almost three centuries of history, Bouchard Père & Fils is thus one of the oldest wine houses in Burgundy. At the head of an exceptional estate in Côte d'Or, the 9th generation of the family still perpetuates this unique know-how in the art of making great Burgundy wines today.

The vineyard

Patience built up over the years, the vineyard of Bouchard Père et Fils now extends over 130 hectares of vines. Bringing together prestigious appellations with exceptional plots, the vineyard of Bouchard Père & Fils constitutes a unique viticultural heritage in Burgundy.

The wine

This Beaune 1er cru "Grèves Vigne de L'Enfant Jésus" Domaine from Bouchard Père & Fils takes its name from a historical anecdote linked to the Carmelite Marguerite du Saint-Sacrement. Indeed, she would have predicted the birth of the future King of France despite the sterility of his mother Anne of Austria. This vineyard took the name of "Vigne de L'Enfant Jésus" at the birth of Louis XIV. Sold in 1791 during the sale of national assets, this terroir, facing east / south-east on a very gravelly clay-limestone soil, has since been the monopoly of Maison Bouchard Père & Fils.

Vinification and ageing

Harvested by hand, the grapes undergo rigorous sorting as well as total or partial destemming depending on the vintages. Fermentation in small containers. Gentle pressing. Maceration from 15 to 20 days. The ageing is carried out for 12 to 14 months in French oak barrels (of which 30 to 50% are new barrels) within the Bastions cellars of the old Château de Beaune.

Blend

Pinot noir (100%)
