Domaine Bachelet Monnot Pommard 2023 750ml
Domaine Bachelet-Monnot Pommard 2023 is an elegant and structured red Burgundy produced by Domaine Bachelet-Monnot in the Côte de Beaune region of France. Crafted from Pinot Noir, this village-level wine combines the depth and firm structure associated with Pommard with the freshness, aromatic finesse and precision that characterise the domaine's winemaking style.
The 2023 vintage presents an expressive bouquet of red cherry, wild strawberry and dark berries, complemented by subtle notes of bay leaf, violet, earthy undergrowth and gentle spice. On the palate, ripe fruit flavours are balanced by fresh acidity, fine-grained tannins and a rounded texture, creating a harmonious wine with both concentration and elegance.
Sourced primarily from the Chanlins vineyard parcel, with additional fruit from La Vache, the wine reflects the diversity of Pommard's terroir. Whole-bunch fermentation contributes aromatic lift and complexity, while maturation in French oak adds structure and subtle spice without overwhelming the natural character of Pinot Noir. The result is a refined Burgundy red with a fleshy palate, savoury nuances and a persistent finish.
Ideal for fine dining, special occasions and Burgundy enthusiasts, this wine pairs particularly well with duck, roasted meats, game birds and mushroom-based dishes.
