Chateau des Bachelards Fleurie 2022 - 750ml

95pts James Suckling

Wonderful fragrance and elegance in spite of the power that the hot and dry growing season has given it. Still very young, but the exceptional concentration and structure for this appellation are already clear. Great balance on the medium- to full-bodied palate. Great drive at the long, very complex finish. Try to be patient with this in the glass, because it steadily expands. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now.

92pts Decanter

A fresh and understated Fleurie, with fruity notes of black berries and cherry, enhanced by hints of violet and summer fruit compote. Juicy, full-bodied tannins paired with lively acidity. A powerful and robust style, featuring surprising fruit intensity, a mineral structure, and clear aging potential.

Winemaker Notes

From very old vines in mass selection cultivated at high density. 

Its dark garnet color is very bright. Its very elegant nose develops a beautiful palette of peonies and violets finely spiced. It is a floral wine on the palate and of great elegance. It is complex, dense and long, relatively firm with notes of very pure fresh blackberry. The whole is airy and without the slightest rusticity. Its great silkiness allows it to be consumed immediately. Keep for about twenty years.
