2015 Bouchie Chatelier Pouilly Fume, Loire Valley

As well as the experience handed down by four generations of vinegrowers, all the members of the family
have been trained in great wine estates. When Bernard Bouchié left the village school he already knew
how to prune vines, but he wanted to learn more. He thus went to study wine in Beaune and worked
in the Hospices de Beaune vineyards. Then he worked for a well-known Champagne House before
heading for the vineyards of the South of France. He came back from the School of Agronomy in
Montpellier as a qualified oenologist. Arnaud, Bernard's son, also spent a few years in Burgundy studying
oenology and the wine trade. Now he is as passionately devoted to the family business as his father.
The family's working methods give the wines their unique character 
which distinguishes them from other Pouilly-Fumés.
