Bachelet-Monnot owns half of this Clos. Boutière may well derive from old French for ‘end of the field’, which fits, considering this vineyard sits on the border of Santenay at the very end of the Clos Roussots vineyard. Clos de la Boutière has more clay in the soil, which can be felt in the added richness of the wine. It comes from a single parcel of 80-year-old, massale selection vines, which deliver ripeness and power. The wine was entirely destemmed this vintage.

Reviews

“The 2020 Maranges Clos de la Boutière 1er Cru has an airy bouquet of dark berry fruit, pressed flowers and just a faint touch of graphite, perhaps one of the more understated aromatics from the domaine. The focused, harmonious palate is medium-bodied with fine backbone and a silky-smooth texture, delivering plenty of tension and energy on the graphite-tinged finish. A superb Maranges that should drink well for 15–20 years.” 92-94 points
Neal Martin, Vinous
“Another hyper intense black purple colour, always very concentrated from their 90 year old vines, still in great condition. Black cherry stones. Plenty of tannins. I am not overpowered by the fruit though. It just needs much more time to come out of its shell. There is a huge mass of really bright fruit waiting within and a lovely clean pure finish.” 90-93 points
