What's in the glass: Jean-Baptiste Boudier has always sought to do things his own way. He grew up in the world of wine, with his parents farming 7ha of vineyards in and around Pernand-Vergelesses. He knew from a young age that he wanted to become a vigneron, eventually getting his degree in viticulture and enology at the Lycée Viticole in Beaune. After various apprenticeships at top domaines across the world, including with his second cousin Nicolas Rossignol in Volnay, in 2014 he came back to work with his parents at the family property. It became clear very quickly that he wanted to go down a different path from his parents, with more focus on responsible farming and using a lighter hand with vinification, and in 2015 he took 3ha of vines and launched his own estate.
