Bouchard Père et Fils

Chambertin 2007

A unique opportunity to acquire wines that define Burgundy’s legacy
About the Session

These wines have been sourced directly from the ancient 15th Century cellars of Bouchard Père et Fils. They were imported into South Africa in March 2026 by Great Domaines via refrigerated container (reefer), ensuring optimal preservation throughout transit. These historic bottles, among the last remaining examples from the 20th and early 21st centuries, represent some of the Domaine’s most important cuvées. Fine vintages across the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune back to 1972 have been selected, checked and captured on the Bouchard database, with a dedicated neck proof tag confirming their recent release from the Bouchard cellars. Bottles from the 2009 vintage and older were also waxed in anticipation of their recent release.

About this Item

Chambertin 2007
1 (1 x 1) 750ml
Approved by the technical team at Bouchard Père et Fils following inspection and tasting.
The 2007 Côte de Nuits harvest produced wines of fine aromatic purity and genuine elegance, a vintage characterised by classical freshness and early accessibility that continues to drink beautifully and reward those who approach it with an open glass. Chambertin is the most celebrated of Gevrey-Chambertin's nine Grands Crus, immortalised by Napoleon Bonaparte who demanded it above all other wines, its limestone and clay soils producing wines of incomparable power, aromatic complexity and longevity that have made it the defining address of the entire Côte de Nuits. The wine is produced from 100% Pinot Noir, aged 12 to 14 months in French oak with 40 to 50% new barrels.

Critics Ratings

“Deep and intense on the nose developing flavours of fruit and spice entwined with subtle oaky hints. Perfect marriage between grace and liveliness, strength and finesse. A superb wine displaying exceptional persistence and of great ageing potential.” - Bouchard Père & Fils, producer tasting notes, 2007 vintage
