1.5 hectare vineyard in the lieu-dit "Val Vilaine" consisting of 100% Pinot Noir.1st press juice only, hand harvested and crushed by foot and fermented using indigenous yeast. Aged for 16 months on the lees in stainless steel. Bottled with no dosage. Bouchard's wines are characterized by uniquely soil-driven personalities, with the underlying terroir of each parcel jumping from the glass with a purity of expression that is extremely rare in Champagne. These are brilliant wines made from a young, perfectionist vigneron who is likely to completely revolutionize the landscape of Champagne before he writes the last chapter on his career.
