This is from the brothers’ vines in Chanlins, a village lieu-dit that lies just above the 1er Cru of the same name on the Volnay border. The 0.25-hectare parcel of 40-year-old vines comes from Alex and Marc Bachelet’s father, who sold the fruit to négociants until 2011. At 400 metres, it’s one of the highest and steepest vineyards of the Côte de Beaune, which, along with the stony, chalk-rich soils, results in a pretty and mid-weighted ‘Volnay expression’ of Pommard. There is also a portion of fruit from recently replanted vines in La Vache. The wine fermented with 50% bunches and was raised with 30% new oak barrels.

“Deep-mid ruby. Round red fruits with a touch of darker cassis. There’s some zesty citrus in there as well as a tell-tale ferrous touch – it’s Pommard after all. Fresh acidity. Despite the Pommard label, there is great openness and freshness. No heavy hand.”
Matthew Hayes, jancisrobinson.com
“From Chanlins and La Vache, the latter now back in the blend after having had to be replanted. A powerful purple colour. 50% whole bunches, which are not especially evident on the nose. The ripe fruit is given a lift though, while some Pommard tannins build the structure at the back. A wine of some substance and ageing ability.”
