The wines of Denis Bachelet have a cult following. The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes is fleshy and gourmand, bursting with aromas of cherries, cassis, sweet spices, orange rind and peony. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and enveloping, with powdery tannins and a saline finish, it’s beautifully balanced.

The Bachelet family has a long tradition in winemaking, and their “Vieilles Vignes” (old vines) cuve is typically produced from some of their oldest vines, which can offer more concentrated and nuanced flavors.

Domaine Bachelet’s Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes offers a wonderful expression of the Gevrey-Chambertin terroir, with the depth, complexity, and finesse that come from old vines and careful winemaking. If you have the chance to taste it, you’ll be experiencing a wine that showcases the best of Burgundy.
