[SOLD-OUT] Bachelet-Monnot Bourgogne Rouge 2021

 

"The 2021 Bourgogne Rouge has a pretty nose with cranberry, raspberry and a touch of stoniness. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy tannins. The 2021 has a little more backbone than other regional reds but still with plenty of freshness on the finish." - Neil Martin, Vinous

 

"Classic ruby color. A fresh, bright and very pinot nose precedes attractively textured and vibrant lighter weight flavors that possess excellent delineation on the mildly rustic, linear and sneaky long finish. To enjoy young for its fruit. Drink through 2024+." - Allen Meadows, Burghound

 

"This bright and juicy Bourgogne was drawn from three parcels: one-third comes from a parcel of old-vine Pinot Fin in the Hautes-Côtes; another third from vines in Maranges (village level); and the remainder from a Bourgogne parcel on the edge of Puligny-Montrachet. The Puligny component brings perfume, the Maranges brings depth of fruit, and the Hautes-Côtes brings structure and high-toned perfume. The age of these sites is seriously impressive for a red of this level, with 60-, 70- and 80-year-old vines in the mix. Naturally fermented in concrete tanks, the aging took in some new barrels this year. It’s a racy and mouth-watering vintage with a lovely core of silken fruit and a dab of spice on the finish." - Bibendum
