Jean-Marc Bouley
Thomas Bouley collaborates closely with his father, Jean-Marc, at their estate in Volnay. With nearly two decades of experience in the family trade, Thomas has skillfully garnered the attention of prominent wine critics for the domaine in the Côte de Beaune. Recognized early on as one of the region's most promising Pinot Noir talents, Thomas has not only met but exceeded these expectations.
The majority of their vineyards are situated in Volnay, with smaller parcels extending into neighbouring villages such as Pommard and around Beaune. Pinot Noir takes centre stage, receiving meticulous attention. Thomas has achieved an impressive quality hierarchy, skillfully showcasing the diversity of the Volnay terroir. The meticulous work of his team in the vineyards, spread across 29 different plots covering eight hectares, is crucial. They blend traditional vineyard practices with modern technology, striving to produce wines that exude elegance, rich fruit, and balance when young, yet also possess aging potential.
Thomas and his team adhere to organic farming practices. This includes environmentally conscious measures such as allowing weeds to grow in winter to regulate humidity and avoiding synthetic agents. The result is a labour-intensive process with a healthy reduction in yield. Thomas integrates cosmic rhythms and employs biodynamic viticulture methods for tasks like pruning and filling the vines.
Frequently lauded for his wood usage in winemaking, Thomas ages and matures his wines in oak for 15 to 20 months, depending on the vintage. The percentage of new barrels varies according to the vintage's needs but never exceeds 50%, aligning with his stylistic preference characterized by fruit, elegance, and energy.
