✨ Technical Specifications
The Beaune Premier Cru 'Clos Saint-Landry' is a historic monopole of Bouchard Père & Fils, representing one of the oldest and most treasured white wine parcels in the Beaune appellation. Originally owned by the Abbey of Saint-Etienne de Dijon in the medieval era, the vineyard was later acquired by the Landry family before being purchased by the Bouchard family in 1791. While Beaune is overwhelmingly famous for its red wines, this exceptional clay-limestone enclave is dedicated entirely to Chardonnay. The resulting wine is celebrated for its unique tension, combining rich stone fruit and white flower aromas with a distinct mineral backbone, enhanced by traditional aging in French oak barrels.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in Beaune in 1731 by Michel Bouchard, Bouchard Père & Fils stands as one of Burgundy's most venerable houses, headquartered within the historic fortress ramparts of the 15th-century Château de Beaune. Across centuries of dedicated plot acquisition, the estate developed an unparalleled patchwork of terroirs spanning classic limestone-clay slopes throughout the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits. Now under the stewardship of Artémis Domaines, the house has phased out third-party négociant volumes to focus purely on estate-grown holdings, completing full organic viticultural certification across its vines. Modern vinification takes place in the gravity-flow Cuverie Saint-Vincent in Savigny-lès-Beaune, where precise temperature management, gentle extraction, and judicious French oak aging highlight transparent site expression. Celebrated benchmarks include the historic Beaune Premier Cru Grèves Vigne de l'Enfant Jésus, the monopole Beaune Premier Cru Clos de la Mousse, Beaune du Château, and crystalline expressions of Chevalier-Montrachet and Meursault.
