Bachelet-Monnot, Chardonnay, Puligny-Montrachet, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France 2019

Bachelet Monnot Puligny Montrachet is vibrant and energetic and shows its class with clear minerality and terroir expression. The precise palate is beautifully balanced, with a fine thread of acidity framing the pure flavors of lime zest, green apple, wet limestone and a touch of sea salt. Exceptional.

Brothers Marc and Alexandre Bachelet might be young but they are quick studies. They started Domaine Bachelet Monnot in 2005 from a combination of family vineyards and long term leases. Their grandfather founded Domaine Bernard Bachelet et Fils in Chassagne-Montrachet and their father made the wines there.
