Building on more than 100 years of winemaking know-how in the golden village of Meursault, Domaine Guy Bocard is a family estate reinvented. Winemaker Guy Bocard retired in 2018 and sold his domaine; the new, dynamic team at the helm benefits both from an inspired group of investors and serious consulting talent.<\/p>\n

The winery\u2019s 14 acres in Meursault are farmed organically. Winemaker Ren\u00e9 Mora has been with Bocard for nearly two decades, having first worked for Oliver Lamy at Domaine Hubert Lamy in Saint-Aubin. His wines are profoundly layered and wonderfully complex, true Meursault that is a joy to savor.<\/p>\n

FARMING & WINEMAKING<\/strong><\/p>\n

The estate tends some 24 acres in Meursault and Auxey-Duresses, including some well-regarded villages and premier cru plots. Vines are cared for according to organic principles, but the estate is not yet certified.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Winemaking is essentially traditional and as non-interventionist as possible. Grapes are harvested by hand in small crates and are gently pressed full cluster; juice is fermented on indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels, and then aged in the same barrels. The estate uses no more than 10% to 15% new oak each vintage, and mostly on wines that are a blend of multiple vineyards. Sulfites are used sparingly, and mostly at bottling; wines are unfined and unfiltered.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A lively and luscious Burgundian Chardonnay farmed organically within the commune boundaries of Meursault — golden and perfect, with plenty of nutty nuance and lemony intensity. A seriously overachieving, anything-but-“basic” Bourgogne.\u00a0<\/p>\n
