With our "Cuvée Signature" wines, you enter the world of premium Burgundy wines proudly signed by Bouchard Aîné & Fils. Characteristic features of these wines include year-round monitoring of individual vineyards, low yields and limited bottling runs. A showcase for Bouchard Aîné & Fils, Cuvée Signature is the ultimate expression of our style and know-how. These “micro-cuvées” express the richness of the finest terroirs of Burgundy in all their intensity and finesse.

This vineyard is situated on relatively low-lying land, free of humidity and well exposed South-South-East. The name "Les Chevenottes" comes from the French word "chanvre" meaning hemp, which was perhaps planted on this land in former times. The vineyard extends over 27.16 acres.

This is a tight and textured wine. Spice and bright fruitiness are balanced with a strong mineral character. The wine will take time to reveal its full, generous fruit and richness.
  • Winemaking

    Fermented in wooden vats and matured in oak barrels for 16 months (20% new oak).

  • Nose

    Aromas of citrus fruits with a mineral touch bringing a fine freshness.

  • Palate

    This wine is rich and round, well-balanced with good acidity. Good length with great purity.
