Domaine Betrand Bachelet Chassagne Montrachet Blanc 1er Cru Morgeot 2024

White Wine From Chassagne Montrachet Burgundy.  A brilliant Chassagne-Montrachet, full of finesse and indulgence.

The 2024 Chassagne-Montrachet from Domaine Bertrand Bachelet is a joyful ode to Burgundian finesse and indulgence. The nose reveals white peach, fresh hazelnut, and golden brioche. On the palate, it’s a dance of textures: generous, precise, delicately oaked, with a saline finish that extends the pleasure. This wine carries the sunlight of the hillsides, the refinement of a skilled hand, and a touch of welcome madness. To be savored slowly, like a well-kept secret.

‘Morgeot’ is located in the south of the village, characterized by compact limestone soil containing iron oxide, which gives the soil its particular red-brown color.

A passion for wine was what led Bertrand Bachelet to take over the family estate from his father, Jean-Louis, in 2011. He is the fourth generation in the line of Burgundy winegrowers.

Bertrand is passionate about continuing the family tradition of producing high-quality wines, and employs new techniques that come from modern viticulture and oenology. His aim is to draw the best out of each terroir in order to produce a range of rich and diverse wines. Strong emphasis is placed on the meticulous work in the vineyard that is required to grow healthy grapes which are crucial when producing Grands Vins. Great importance is given to working the soil, so that the uniqueness of each terroir can be showcased.

From the pruning stage right up to the harvest, all work is done manually. Vinification is still carried out in a traditional manner with little intervention, to highlight the uniqueness and complexity of each of their terroirs.
