Domaine Bachelet
Vieilles Vignes Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Lush and soulful. Dark plum. Herbal undertow. Quite contained and mineral. Very good. Time would help.

Nov 3rd, 2023That gorgeous Bachelet gevrey nose- plush red and blue fruit with underbrush. Quite tight and a bit shrill at first but it relaxed with some air and had a light and precise palate. Focussed… very 01 in character. Great stuff

Jul 16th, 2022Tasted blind. Phenomenal bouquet that easily led us to Grand Cru Burgundy. I had the region being a Morey St. Denis GC and originally felt it was 2014 but changed my guess to 2010. Should have trusted my gut! The wine was shockingly open, so giving and not as primary as I would have expected. Superb density and finesse and so silky on the palate. Fantastic.

Apr 21st, 2021A jaw dropping nose. Iodine, rockpools, uni, deep blue fruit, blackcurrant, violets. Gorgeous depth and freshness with supple fruit and a bloody depth. So pure and poised. Loads of energy and vigor. Amazing

Sep 25th, 2020Gorgeously plush. Deep, sexy fruit. This is supple and has a bit of tang on the edges. Strawberry, dark fruit. Just gorgeous. None of the 04 imbalance. Great.

Aug 10th, 2020What a nose. Wow. Very open, lush and floral. Violet, cherry, sappy and young. This has loads of light and bright fruit. Young but very approachable and delicious.

Oct 25th, 2019This is really dense and intense (closed) on the nose. There’s hints of black pepper and dark meaty fruit. Not much is escaping the black hole of 05 youth in the nose but the palate is so poised and beatify balanced. Still very tight and contained but wow- this has a future.
