Limited New Release | Domaine Jean-Claude Bachelet 2024s

Domaine Jean-Claude Bachelet & Fils | Saint Aubin

The secret is out on Jean-Claude Bachelet. Just next door to Hubert Lamy, brothers Benoît and Jean-Claude Bachelet are taking their family's 10-hectare domaine to new heights. Their enviable portfolio of parcels, spread across Saint-Aubin, Chassagne, and Puligny, combined with long press cycles and extended élevage in wood, results in some of the most magical, minuscule-production wines you'll find in Burgundy.

2024 Jean-Claude Bachelet et Fils Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Champlots
• 90-92VN, 90-92JM
"The 2024 Saint-Aubin Les Champlots ler Cru has a well-defined bouquet with hints of tropical fruit in the background, demonstrating a bit more chutzpah than the Les Frionnes at the moment. The palate is well balanced with a rounded texture, hints of dried honey and apricot and the acidity keeps this on its tippy toes. Satisfyingly persistent on the finish, this is a capable Les Champlots." -Neal Martin

2024 Jean-Claude Bachelet et Fils Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Le Charmois
• 91-93VN, 90-92JM
"The 2024 Saint-Aubin Le Charmois ler Cru shows just a little more wood influence on the nose, although that will definitely be assimilated by the time this is bottled. The palate is well balanced with a keen line of acidity. Stricter, perhaps more Puligny-like than the Les Champlots, this has wonderful tension and persistency on the finish. This is very enticing." -NM

2024 Benoit & Jean Baptiste Bachelet Meursault Sous La Velle
• NR

2024 Jean-Claude Bachelet et Fils Puligny-Montrachet Les Aubues
• 90-93JM, 89-91VN
"Mid lemon yellow, not especially floral but with a solid level of fruit. Opens out well on the palate, just ripe enough white orchard fruit without the citrus, fills the mouth very nicely and continues on to a long finish. Worth holding back for a while." -Jasper Morris

2024 Jean-Claude Bachelet et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Boudriotte Blanc
• 92-94VN, 91-93JM
"The 2024 Chassagne-Montrachet La Boudriotte ler Cru has an intriguing bouquet that keeps drawing your nose to the glass: popcorn, blanched almond and litchi, very well defined and the oak here deftly integrated. The palate is very well balanced with a silver thread of acidity that cuts through the yellow fruit, lightly spiced with ginger and lemongrass towards the finish. Yet I still think this will have more to give if granted two or three years in bottle." -NM

2024 Benoit & Jean Baptiste Bachelet Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes
• 91-93VN
"The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes ler Cru, as usual, comes from purchased must, which is why it is not under the Domaine label. This has an attractive bouquet with Granny Smiths, Anjou pear and touches of granite. Very Puligny. The palate is well balanced with a crisp line of acidity, quite seductive apricot-tinged citrus fruit that segues into a finish displaying a little more weight and persistence. Very fine." -NM
