Their story

Domaine du Bouchot sits on the south-west slope below Saint-Andelain, in Pouilly-Fumé. Rachel and Pascal Kerbiquet founded it in 1985 and were among the first in the appellation to farm organically. Antoine Gouffier, who grew up here, took over after a decade abroad, with stints in Argentina with Michel Rolland and in South Africa with Duncan Savage, where he met his wife Ilse.

Today the domaine farms about 10 hectares on clay and limestone, certified organic and biodynamic. Antoine works with wild yeasts, old barrels and amphorae, and nothing added: Caillottes from thin soils over limestone, MCMLV from the oldest vines of the Terres Blanches plot, and an orange Sauvignon for the curious.
