12 ha of grands crus and 74 ha of premiers crus in Burgundy (Bouchard
domain). Since 1731, winemaker of the main fine burgundy wines : Montrachet,

Nuits St Georges, …
The House of Bouchard
Père et Fils owns an exceptional collection of over 50 000 bottles
in the cellars dating back to 1950 and a unique collection of very rare
19th century bottles going back as far as 1846 !
Jealously and preciously preserved, these bottles lie in the Bouchard
Père & Fils museum within the bastions of the former site
of the Château de Beaune which provide ideal cellars conditions
because they are protected by 7 metre thick walls. Moreover, the corks
of these "gems" are changed every 25 to 30 years to maintain
the exceptional quality.
This is a magical place, where time stands still, giving play to the
imagination and offering visitors a marvellous experience of discovery.
