Product Notes

Domaine Bouchard Père & Fils Mâcon-Lugny Saint-Pierre is a white wine produced in the Mâconnais region of Burgundy, France. Made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, the wine exudes a bright and refreshing character alongside an alluring bouquet of citrus and white flower notes.

The wine is fermented for up to 10 months, then aged in oak barrels for an additional four. This helps to impart a luxurious creaminess to the texture of the wine, as well as complementing the subtle notes of vanilla and toast.

The result is a wine that balances bright acidity with rich flavor and texture - perfect for pairing with light seafood dishes, roasted chicken or vegetable gratin. It's an excellent example of the quality of wine that can be found within the region, and a testament to the passion and expertise of the team at Domaine Bouchard Père & Fils.

Tasting Notes

Fresh nose offering a lovely bouquet of wildflowers. Pleasant, very perfumed and nicely rounded on the palate, this wine should be drunk in its youth in order to enjoy its freshness.

About the Winery

Domaine Bouchard Père & Fils

Joseph Bouchard understood the potential of Burgundy, one of the premium wine-growing regions of France during the middle of the 18th century. This is one reason why he didn’t think twice when he heard of a wine estate on sale in this region in 1773. Since then, he acquired this particular wine estate in Volnay village and has been making symbolic wines under his label. 

The Bouchard wine estate is located in a beautiful location on the rich Burgundian terroirs. The vineyard stretches 48km that runs from north to south, encompassing over 450 plots of diverse soil qualities and climatic conditions. At Domaine Bouchard Pere & Fils, the winemaking team practices sustainable winemaking practices to respect the soil where the grapes are grown. The fruits are carefully hand-harvested, before they are sorted in a small parcel. Every bottle produced here reflects the true character of the divine soil structure of the Burgundy region.

In 2005, this estate invested in a state-of-the-art and sophisticated winery, Saint Vincent winery, located in Savigny-Les-Beaune. The vat room, where the vinification occurs, is constructed 5m underground; therefore, grapes are travel to the next steps with natural gravity. This winery has the potential to hold 138 maceration vats, 100 vintages, 4000 barrels and more. Since the cellar is located 10m below the ground level, it is known for its natural ventilation and humidity levels. Wines can be aged for an extended period here.

All the wines are aged for at least a year. However, it may take longer based on the appellation and the type of varietal used for the wines. The cellar’s natural hygrometry enjoys a consistent temperature level to make the Grand Crus created here really special and unique from the ones created elsewhere. Every parcel of the terroir is given a lot of respect; therefore, the wines crafted from each parcel are aged separately.
