2024 St-Aubin 1er Cru Le Charmois, Jean-Claude Bachelet et Fils

2024 St-Aubin 1er Cru Le Charmois, Jean-Claude Bachelet et Fils

Le Charmois is on a hill just next to Chassagne-Montrachet’s 1er Cru Les Chaumées. Its cool, poor limestone soil makes for a tightly powerful wine with straight, chalky freshness. There’s a spicy, fresh ginger twist to the fruit, perhaps thanks to the playful reduction going on here. It’s salty, taut and extremely good.

Tasting notes

Pale lemon and lime. A little lime blossom too on the nose. Then opens up to a riper palate, still with the same quality backbone. With length and tension. Showing well. Drink from 2029-2032. Tasted Oct 2025.
