Description

Monopoly of the Domain, this clos is the property of the family since 1908. It has always been a jewel of the village. In 1507, it was part of the “Domaine Royal”. Its name comes from the old Burgundian patois boucho which means bush, or from bouchure which means a hedge of separation. Its location on the border of Pommard towards Beaune explains this name. The vines, 29 years old, cover an area of 1.83 hectares, facing south-east.


The microclimate created by the Clos endows this Pommard 1er Cru with a very special personality. Smooth, long and silky on entry to the palate, developing a lovely mellow character. Its power comes through towards the end with a more substantial, tannic finish giving the wine great volume and remarkable length. Each year, its personality exerts itself more and more, with the special character of the climat showing through. With exceptionally long-lingering flavours, enriched by an array of aromas, this is a very sensual wine. Steaks or grilled rib of beef, served with a pepper sauce. Lamb or chicken stews, stewed pork cheek with a pepper sauce, venison grand veneur, mushrooms stuffed with chopped ham, Corsican coppa with toasted sesame bread, mountain charcuterie, braised or roasted game animals and birds, etc. Cheeses such as Epoisses, Langres, Soumaintrain, Amourde-Nuits, Livarot or Pont-l’Eveque. And, of course, dark chocolate-based desserts.
