A fresh start for this historic Meursault estate. Purchased in 2018 by the Derichebourg family, Domaine Guy Bocard has been completely transformed under the guidance of renowned Burgundy winemaker Philippe Pacalet.
Since the 2022 vintage, the wines have been reborn, marking the return of this discreet six-hectare domaine, certified organic and focused on Villages and Premier Crus, to the very top.
Pacalet’s touch is unmistakable and remarkably effective. The entire range of White wines is simply outstanding.
