Based in the heart of Chassagne-Montrachet, the Bachelet family has been growing Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines for 3 generations in the Côte de Beaune and the Côte de Nuits.
The plot in the commune of Maranges, the Premier Cru La Fussière, is one of the estate's historic vineyards, and once again this year it has received excellent recognition for the 2018 vintage from the Hachette des Vins 2021 Guide.

Guide Hachette des Vins 2021, tasting notes for Maranges 1er Cru La Fussière
The tasting notes from the Guide Hachette des Vins 2021, in the original language:
"Etoilé l'an passé avec ce climat mais en version blanche, le Domaine signe un 2018 rouge sombre, intense, au nez de cassis et de mûre agrémenté d'une touche vanillée. Des arômes prolongés par une bouche intense, ample, puissante et longue"
The English translation:
"Awarded a star last year for the same climat in its white version, the Domaine delivers a deep, intense red 2018, with a nose of blackcurrant and blackberry enhanced by a touch of vanilla. Aromas that carry through onto an intense, full-bodied, powerful and long palate"
