Description
A Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru wine combining finesse and character
The estate
Founded in 1731, Bouchard Père & Fils is one of the oldest houses of Bourgogne. The estate covers 130 hectares, a significant portion of which consists of classified vineyards producing wines renowned for their great finesse.
The vineyard
Clos Vougeot, located in the village of Vougeot, is a historic vineyard dating back to 1110. Today, around 80 owners share this prestigious 50-hectare clos. The soils vary from the top to the bottom of the appellation, with gravelly and limestone soils on the upper slope, and brown, marly, and clayey soils in the lower part.
Winemaking and aging
Grapes are harvested by hand, followed by a careful sorting of each cluster. After total or partial destemming according to the vintage’s requirements, fermentation takes place in small vats, followed by gentle pressing. The maceration lasts 18 to 21 days. Aging in French oak barrels, 45 to 60% of which are new, lasts 12 to 14 months.
Grape variety
This 2014 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru from Bouchard Père & Fils is 100% Pinot Noir.
