From the terroirs of Au Mont and Aux Combes. A total area of .65 hectares (1.6 acres) with a South/South East exposure.
Aromas of stone fruit and citrus. Medium bodied with a lively textural palate.
Domaine du Roc des Boutires has 4.2 hectares on an east-west oriented strip at the same latitude of the village of Pouilly on Jurassic limestone interlaced with clay and shale, the same substratum as the premiers and grands crus of the Cte dOr. The vines of Chardonnay, mostly planted in the beginning of the 1970s, are flowering here with the greatest respect for the natural environment. All wines come from the estate vineyard exclusively.
In the village of Pouilly, in the heart of Pouilly-Fuiss AOC, lies the Domaine du Roc des Boutires. It originates from two names: the proximity with Roche de Solutr, which is an emblem of the appellation and a testament to the extraordinary geologic richness of the vineyard; and its settlement in the very heart of one of the best terroirs of the appellation, Aux Bouthires.In ancient French vocabulary, a boutire means a secondary road that mule skinners used for the transportation of oils and wines in remote parts of the country. The vineyard is actually 5 kilometers west from the ancient Roman track of Via Agrippa, on a very small road which is now leading to the village of Solutr, the hills of the Maconnais and the plains of the Charolais.
