Description
Bachelet Monnot was only formed in 2005 but it has been cranking out the hits from the get go, with each subsequent release outdoing the last.
The Bachelets make wines that are classically styled, emphasizing the inherent freshness, complexity and minerality in each cuvee... This is a new producer to follow." Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar, Sept/Oct 2007
"The Whites are exceptionally fine." Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
"Domaine Bachelet-Monnot is quickly becoming one of the best white wine estates in the Cote de Beaune." Burgschnauzer.com
Les Charmes is a site just under the Clos Rousseau 1er cru on the western slopes of the Santenay Hill. It tends to produce a textured red and this supple example, from 45 year old vines, is very smart. Crunchy blueberry fruits, huge intensity and a fresh, long finish. Another brilliant bargain from the Bachelet boys; ultra impressive for this commune.
