2023 Bachelet-Monnot Bourgogne Rouge, Burgundy, France
ABOUT THE WINE
Crafted from carefully selected Pinot Noir parcels across Burgundy, this regional bottling reflects the precision and restraint that define the house style of Domaine Bachelet-Monnot. The 2023 growing season yielded fruit of excellent aromatic clarity and natural balance, highlighting freshness and purity.
Fermented with a focus on gentle extraction to preserve delicate fruit character, the wine is aged primarily in neutral French oak barrels to add subtle structure without masking terroir expression. The result is a beautifully proportioned Bourgogne Rouge that offers both immediacy and understated complexity.
Expect flavors of red currant, cranberry, and cherry layered with hints of earth, spice, and a touch of minerality typical of Burgundy’s limestone-rich soils. While approachable in youth, the wine has the structure to evolve gracefully over several years.
Food Pairings: Excellent with roast chicken, duck breast, mushroom risotto, charcuterie, or soft-ripened cheeses. Its brightness and finesse also complement herb-roasted pork or grilled salmon.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Based in the CĂ´te de Beaune, Domaine Bachelet-Monnot was founded by brothers Marc and Alexandre Bachelet, who combine traditional Burgundian values with meticulous vineyard management. The estate is known for sustainable farming practices, low yields, and a hands-on approach in both vineyard and cellar.
With an emphasis on precision, balance, and transparency, Bachelet-Monnot crafts wines that faithfully reflect their origins. From regional appellations to premier crus, their philosophy remains consistent: allow the vineyard to speak clearly through thoughtful, minimal intervention winemaking.
