The estate and the wine |
|
|
A fresh chapter begins for this historic estate in the heart of Meursault. Acquired in 2018 by the Derichebourg family, Domaine Guy Bocard is undergoing a complete transformation under the guidance of renowned Burgundy winemaker Philippe Pacalet.
Since the 2022 vintage, the wines have been completely revitalized, marking a triumphant return to form for this discreet six-hectare estate, now certified organic and focused exclusively on Village and Premier Cru wines. |
|
|
| |
|
Located just below Les Perrières, the 2023 White Meursault Premier Cru Charmes is a wine aged with restraint—only 15% new oak—allowing the fruit and the natural energy of the terroir to shine through. With impressive intensity, it reveals elegant toasted and grilled notes, vibrant freshness, and a dynamic lift. It has greater breadth than the Village-level wines, with the roundness and stature typical of this esteemed cru. A beautifully crafted bottle, well worth cellaring. Rated 95/100 by the Selection Committee. |
