Origins

Bouchard Aîné & Fils house is perpetuating the tradition of quality, elegance and prestige in selecting and making fine wines which marvellously express all the richness of the French terroirs.

We have selected the best « terroirs » to create this wine, sourcing Pinot Noir grapes from the south of France and adding extra value using grapes from their native soil.

The Pinot Noir grapes, grown in specific vineyards on clay-limestone soils along the Mediterranean coast, are subjected to a wide temperature range. As a result, they benefit from very favourable conditions for reaching full ripeness and expressing all the richness of the grape variety.

This wine is a perfect reflection of our commitment to enhancing varietals, offering complexity through its finesse but remaining accessible to all.

Vinification and maturing

Harvested at night to preserve all their freshness, the grapes were pressed directly. The juice then underwent static settling at low temperature to ensure gentle fermentation and the preservation of fruity aromas. Selected aromatic yeasts were then added, followed by fermentation at 18°C with micro-ventilation. Once malolactic fermentation was complete, the wine was racked and matured on fine lees with regular stirring of the lees.

History

Paul Bouchard (1814-1898) represents the 5th. generation of the family, he offered an international destiny to the House, but also to the entire region and its wines. Known as the Grand Conseiller, Paul was both a politician and a visionary.

Mayor,  Sub-prefect,  Departmental  Counsellor of Côte d’Or, he was not only involved in his city and the vines, but played also a major role in the technical and commercial development of Bouchard Ainé & Fils. He founded the Viticultural School of Beaune, whose teaching helped to understand the various diseases of the vine, including Phylloxera.

This technical development is also marked by a qualitative approach based on the art of blending, this Paul’s conception of quality has remained in the fundamentals of the House.

Full of history and with fine flavour our Héritage du Conseiller pay tribute to the numerous commitments of Paul Bouchard.
