Terroir

VINE AGE: 18 years old.

LOCATION: vines planted on the La Fussière 1er Cru climate, which extends across almost the entire length of the Premier Cru hillside (bordering the renowned Clos-Rousseau in Santenay at its upper part). White wine production is rare here (only 5% of the total volume of the La Fussière 1er Cru appellation).

EXPOSURE: Full south; altitude of 300 to 350 m. Vincent Bachelet produces the finest wines of the appellation here.

SOILS: well-drained hillside, where the bedrock is composed of JURASSIC limestone marls covered with scree and silt.

Viticulture & Winemaking

HARVEST: manual.

YIELD: N/A.

SORTING: N/A.

WINEMAKING: berries and stems are pressed immediately upon arrival at the winery. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts, followed by malolactic fermentation.

AGING: on fine lees in new oak barrels (20%) and older barrels (80%) for 11 months. Regular lees stirring (bâtonnage) during the first months of aging.

BOTTLING: after racking and resting in tanks for 1 month, fining and filtration.

CORK: DIAM5®, specially designed to guarantee the absence of any contamination of the wine by the cork (known as "cork taint"), thanks to the use of the finest part of the cork previously cleared of the molecule responsible for this aromatic defect.

Sommelier's Note

"Truly beautiful craftsmanship! This Maranges La Fussière 1er Cru is perfectly chiseled, mineral, and of rare elegance. With great complexity, the palate is perfectly balanced, vibrant, and flavorful. I am in love with its delicious touch of pink grapefruit—a real favorite!"
