Bachelet-Monnot, Puligny-Montrachet 2022
Variety: Chardonnay Brothers Marc and Alexandre Bachelet are known as some of Burgundy’s finest talents. Only starting in 2005, they used land holdings that belonged to their grandfather, and then their father after that. They have an array of seriously enviable plots strewn between Puligny, Chassagne, Meursault, and Santenay, all in the south of the Cote de Beaune. While they’re known primarily for their structured and precise Chardonnays, their Pinot Noir are equally charming and intensely aromatic. Even for being so new to Burgundy, these brothers have quickly moved their way among Burgundy’s most elite producers. Coming from four different parcels in Puligny-Montrachet. The vines there are over 30 years in age. Aging takes place in both 20% new barrels and tanks for over a year and a half.
