2019 Bouchard Pere & Fils Pouilly-Fuisse

2019 Bouchard Pere & Fils Pouilly-Fuisse This 2019 wine is delicious and vibrant. Its aromas and flavors of ripe apples and a suggestion of flowers should pair it beautifully with a frisky salad of roast chicken, arugula, and other garden vegetables accented with a drizzle of lemon vinaigrette.

These remarkable parcels are meticulously tended by our teams who are responsible for the maintenance of the estate’s vines.

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is the dominant red wine grape of Burgundy, now adopted (and extensively studied) in wine regions all over the world. The variety’s elusive charm has carried it to all manner of vineyards. These extend from western Germany (as Spätburgunder) and northern Italy to Chile, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. California, Oregon and New Zealand are arguably the greatest centers for the grape outside its home territory. However great Pinot Noir is made in all of these territories. The essence of Pinot Noir wine is its aroma of red berries and cherry (fresh red cherries in lighter wines and stewed black cherries in weightier examples).
