92-94 Pts Jasper Morris MW 'Picked on the same day as Caillerets, which they are just above. If anything, slightly sultrier, but still a gorgeous expression of pinot. Firmer stricter behind, in fact quite massive, will need all its elevage. Cooler fruit in the mouth than the nose suggested. Drink from 2033-2042.'

About the Wine Maker 
Today the Burgundian wine Domaine of Bouchard Pere et Fils can trace its origins back to 1731, though it is no longer family owned. In 1995 the Champagne house Joseph Henriot acquired the company and quality has risen as a consequence. Bouchard is led by Stéphane Follin Arbelet, while the wines are made by Philippe Prost - who has been with the company since 1978. An impressive gravity-flow winery on the Route de Savigny, the Cuvérie St Vincent, was completed in 2005 and enables them to process all their wines with optimum efficiency. Bouchard’s total holdings comprise 130 hectares, including 12ha of grand crus and 74ha of premier crus, which makes them the largest vineyard owners in the Côte d’Or.
