Domaine Bachelet Cote de Nuits-Villages 2020

From 70-year-old vines in Brochon, Bachelet’s 2020 Côte de Nuits-Villages is precise and expressive, with the concentration and lift that mark the vintage. The wine shows raspberry preserve, blood orange, and violet, with fine tannins and a dusting of spice. Grown on limestone soils just outside Gevrey-Chambertin, it offers structure and drive in a compact, polished frame. A textbook example of how this appellation can deliver serious character when in the right hands.
