BOUCHAINE VINEYARDS
Gerret and Tatiana Copeland founded Bouchaine Vineyards in 1981. A reorganization in 1986 led to the decision to concentrate more on Chardonnay and less on Pinot Noir. Bouchaine has thus become renowned for its distinguished Chardonnay wines. With the Estate Reserve, Winemaker David Stevens continues Bouchaine's philosophy of producing wines that are crisp, well-balanced, elegant and demonstrate the varietal characteristics of fruit grown in the Carneros region and neighbouring areas
