Terroir of Clos Boucher
Clos Boucher is a parcel that has always belonged to the Delas family, on which we have developed a unique style: precise, taut, and free of excess. The vineyard covers 2.5 hectares, divided among three exposures and three complementary geological formations: to the south, a massive, undecomposed granite; to the east, schist mixed with deep loess; and at the bottom of the slope, clay that softens the wine’s texture. This diversity of soils generates a rare complexity in the wine, defined by a constant tension between finesse, depth, and verticality.
Breaking free from the expected apricot notes, it asserts a deeper, more nuanced palette of sweet spices. The granite imparts its distinctive minerality, while the winemaking brings a refined elegance that makes it a true gastronomic wine. Its freshness and its ageing in wood give it a confidently age‑worthy character, crafted to allow it to stand the test of time with nobility.
