Domaine Bachelet-Monnot

The Bachelet family is very well-known in the Côte d'Or, owning plots in some of Burgundy's most famous vineyards. Despite this, the family experienced some disagreements about the estate's operations. The youngest generation, brothers Marc and Alex, remained unfazed and studied viticulture at university and completed internships elsewhere in France and the United States. Upon returning to Burgundy, their grandfather decided to give parts of his land not to his own sons, but to his two grandsons. From day one, both boys devoted themselves wholeheartedly to their new endeavors. 2005 was the first vintage that Marc and Alex Bachelet worked independently. What they share is that they are both enormous perfectionists and incredibly eager to learn. They constantly strive to improve and perfect the estate, and with each visit, changes have been made, from the size of the barrels and the duration of the aging process to the cellar temperature. In addition to the great wines they make in the prestigious villages of Puligny and Chassagne, Marc and Alexandre Bachelet also make exemplary wines in Maranges and Santenay.
