Domaine Bachelet-Monnot

Dezize-lès-Maranges

Participating Winemakers: Marc Bachelet & Alex Bachelet

Brothers Marc & Alex Bachelet founded Domaine Bachelet-Monnot in 2005 with vineyards from their father and uncle, and today farm a mix of family-owned and long-term leased vineyards totaling over 20 hectares in Maranges, Santenay, and Puligny-Montrachet. The brothers are thoughtful viticulturalists, using no herbicide and plowing regularly to remove weeds and aerate the soil. In the cellar, they age their wines for 12 months in around 25% new oak and then rack their whites into stainless steel and reds into concrete for another 6-8 months of lees aging. With a number of prestigious appellations to their name, in addition to very high quality terroirs in lesser-known Santenay and Maranges, the Bachelet brothers are rising stars in the region.
