Domaine Bertrand Bachelet - Chassagne-Montrachet rouge 2021
91/100
Bettane & Desseauve
"Chassagne-Montrachet is in top form!"
This is a highly expressive wine that, from the very first whiff, offers pleasant aromas of wild strawberries, morello cherries, and raspberries. On the palate, it has plenty of body and reveals notes of spices and pepper. While still young, it’s best to open it a little in advance so that the wine can reveal its full character and richness.

About the estate:
Bertrand Bachelet, a young winemaker who has been in business since 2011, heads this 13-hectare estate stretching from Maranges to Pommard. Sustainable viticulture and the Cordon de Royat training system are standard practice here, as are the massal selections developed from the estate’s oldest vines. The range is characterized by wines with ripe, intense fruit. The reds, which make up the vast majority of production, are vinified with the stems removed in concrete tanks and feature silky tannins, while the whites, made without stirring, offer roundness and aromas of juicy, honeyed orchard fruits.
