Tasting notes
The Domaine du Roc des Boutires Bourgogne Blanc 2022 reveals a harmonious blend of ripe orchard fruits and citrus, framed by subtle oak nuances. On the nose, it offers inviting aromas of green apple, yellow peach, nectarine, and hints of lemon and lime pith. The palate is creamy yet vibrant, with bright acidity that lifts the wine’s generous fruit profile. Smooth and elegant in texture, it shows impressive concentration and intensity, finishing with length and finesse.
About the Winery
In the village of Pouilly, in the middle of the Pouilly-Fuissé AOC lies Domaine du Roc des Boutires. The winery’s name draws on both terroir and tradition: its proximity with the Roche de Solutré, an emblem of the appellation and a testament to the extraordinary geologic richness of this vineyard; as well as the domaine’s settlement in the very heart of one of the best terroirs of the appellation – “Aux Bouthières.” In the ancient French vocabulary, a “boutière” was a secondary road that mule skinners used for the transportation of oils and wines in remote parts of the country. The vineyard of Domaine du Roc des Boutires is only 5 kilometers (3.12 miles) west of the ancient Roman track of Via Agrippa, on a very small road which now leads to the village of Solutré, the hills of the Mâconnais and the plains of the Charolais. Every name here has a story.
