Lamé-Delisle-Boucard is a historic family domaine in the Bourgueil AOC, with origins dating back to 1869 and a continuous lineage shaped by resilience through events such as phylloxera and the World Wars. Now led by Philippe Boucard, the estate spans roughly 47 hectares across multiple villages, with vineyards planted primarily to Cabernet Franc on a range of soils including gravel, sand, and clay-limestone, contributing to varied expressions of structure and minerality. Farming is organic, with hand harvesting and parcel-by-parcel vinification, while aging takes place in large, neutral oak vessels with minimal intervention. The domaine is particularly known for its extensive underground cellars and library of older vintages, reflecting a long-standing focus on producing balanced, age-worthy wines rooted in terroir rather than cellar manipulation.
