Description

The Pommard Premier Cru 2019 - Les Rugiens by Bouchard Père & Fils is a precious interpretation of Pinot Noir from one of the most renowned parcels of Pommard. This wine, cultivated on iron-rich soils which give it a particular intensity, reveals on the nose a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, spicy notes, and a slight touch of vanilla, derived from aging in French oak barrels.

On the palate, the 2019 Les Rugiens stands out for its robust yet elegant structure, with finely crafted tannins that harmoniously intertwine with a persistent freshness. The notes of cherry, strawberry, and a hint of black pepper meld on a backdrop of subtle earthy minerality that reflects the authentic expression of its terroir.

This wine is an excellent example of balance and refinement, showcasing the full potential of the Les Rugiens cru. Excellent to enjoy now, but promising to evolve beautifully over the coming decades. Ideally served at 16-18°C, it pairs wonderfully with red meats, mushroom-based dishes, or aged cheeses. A masterpiece that elevates any wine collection.

Winery history

The Maison's history dates back to the early 18th century: Michel Bouchard settled in Beaune and the family began trading wine. In the following decades the Bouchard family acquired significant vineyards. The Maison's historic headquarters are linked to the Château de Beaune, and ownership passed to the Henriot family in 1995; more recently the Maison became part of Artémis Domaines. The official website cites 1731 as the year activities began in Beaune and 1775 as the date of the first acquisition of vineyard plots.

Production philosophy

The Maison’s approach combines respect for Burgundian heritage with sustainable practices: enhancement of the terroir, soil conservation, attention to biodiversity, and gradual conversion to organic farming, with commitments to responsible resource management and the protection of local and human heritage.
