Domaine Aurore Bachelet - Santenay 2022
Domaine Aurore Bachelet is located in Santenay, south of the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy . Holder of a diploma from a business school and steeped in international experience, Aurore has chosen to reconnect with her origins in Burgundy. After training in viticulture and oenology, she perfected her skills for five years alongside her father, Vincent Bachelet. At the same time, she is investing in the development of her own field. Aurore produces the two emblematic grape varieties of Burgundy: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. For each vintage, she strives to respect the Burgundian identity with vinification as little interventionist as possible.
Santenay is made from Pinot Noir whose vines are around 50 years old, grown on clay-limestone terroir. After manual harvesting, the harvest is put into cold pre-fermentation vatting . Fermentation takes place in vats, regular manual punching down and watering are carried out. The wine is aged for 12 months in oak barrels , then 5 months in stainless steel vats .
Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
