Incorporating an appreciable percentage of whole bunches, the 2019 Pommard 1er Cru bursts with notes of peonies, plums, orange rind, sweet red berries and raw cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, ample and velvety, it's supple and precise, with an ample core of perfumed, sapid fruit.
The 2018 Pommard is showing nicely, wafting from the glass with aromas of dark berries, smoked meats, plums and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with lively acids, powdery tannins and a generous core of fruit, it concludes with a savory finish.

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.

Pommard is a village located in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy, France. The village is known for producing some of the most robust and full-bodied red wines in the region. Pommard wines are made from Pinot Noir grapes, which are grown on the slopes of the Côte d'Or.

The history of winemaking in Pommard dates back to the Roman era, when the area was known for producing high-quality wines. The village was also a popular destination for pilgrims traveling to Santiago de Compostela, who would stop in Pommard to rest and enjoy the local wines.

Today, Pommard is home to some of the most prestigious wineries in Burgundy, including Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Comte Armand, and Domaine de Courcel. These wineries are known for their traditional winemaking techniques, which involve hand-harvesting the grapes and fermenting them in oak barrels.

Pommard wines are known for their deep ruby color and complex aromas of black cherry, raspberry, and earthy notes. On the palate, these wines are full-bodied and tannic, with flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of minerality. Pommard wines are best enjoyed with hearty dishes such as roasted meats, stews, and strong cheeses.

Overall, Pommard is a must-visit destination for wine lovers who appreciate bold and complex red wines. The village's rich history and traditional winemaking techniques have helped to establish Pommard as one of the premier wine regions in Burgundy.
