This is the Bachelets’ first release from this highly regarded 1er Cru, which is a continuation of Santenay’s Clos Rousseau. The family has owned vines here for decades, though the parcel was too small to vinify separately; this fruit was previously blended into the village wines. From 2022, they have a new fermage agreement in place, taking the total surface to just over half a hectare, so a single cuvée is possible. The vineyard has a band of hard limestone under brown marl soils. The brothers experimented with 100% bunches this year, and zero sulphur was added until racking. The experiment was more than successful! It’s an intensely floral, seductive red with a delicious creamy texture and fine tannins. Again, next-level for the appellation and another bargain.
