Founded in 1731 in Beaune by Michel Bouchard, Bouchard Père & Fils, is one of the oldest wine estates in Burgundy, perpetuating tradition for nearly 3 centuries and 9 generations. In 1775, Joseph Bouchard acquired his first vineyards in Volnay in the famous “Les Caillerets” climat and started to develop the family’s vineyard holdings.

During the French Revolution, property belonging to the clergy and nobility was confiscated and put up for sale. Joseph’s son, Antoine Philibert Joseph Bouchard, seized the opportunity to extend the family’s vineyard holdings in Beaune including the famous “Beaune Grèves Vigne de l’Enfant Jesus.”

This desire to build up an exceptional estate in Côte d’Or endured through the generations and acquisitions in the best Villages were added throughout the 19th century and again in the early 20th century.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.

The Côte de Beaune is a key wine-producing district within the Burgundy wine region in eastern France, named after the town of Beaune, which serves as the heart of winemaking activity in the area. It is one of the two subregions of the larger Côte d'Or, the other being the Côte de Nuits to the north. The Côte de Beaune is particularly renowned for its extraordinary white wines made from Chardonnay, including some of the most famous and expensive examples in the world like those from Montrachet, Corton-Charlemagne, and Meursault.

While white wines are the stars, the Côte de Beaune also produces superb red wines primarily from Pinot Noir. These wines typically exhibit great elegance and complexity with a lighter body compared to those from the Côte de Nuits. The region encompasses a range of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards, which are recognized for their unique terroirs and the distinct, expressive wines they produce.

The terroir here is varied, with a mixture of limestone, clay, and marl soils which, along with the gentle slopes and favorable exposure, contribute to the nuanced differences between wines from different vineyards. Winemakers in the Côte de Beaune often utilize traditional methods, but there has been an increasing shift towards sustainable and organic practices, reflecting a deep respect for the land and a commitment to quality and environmental stewardship.
