Hailing from one of Burgundy's oldest and most venerable houses, Bouchard Père et Fils, founded in 1731, the 'Vignes Romanes' is a beautifully crafted white wine that pays homage to the region's deep Roman viticultural roots. Produced from the traditional Aligoté grape, this cuvée captures the vibrant, crisp, and mineral-driven side of Burgundy. The grapes are sourced from selected parcels where limestone-rich soils impart a distinctive flinty character. Vinified with care to preserve its bright fruit and energetic acidity, this wine represents a historic, refreshing style of white Burgundy that has graced local tables for centuries, celebrating the everyday elegance of the region's terroir.
