ready-improve2019 St Aubin, Derrière la Tour, 1er Cru, Domaine Jean-Claude Bachelet

The Bachelets’ reds are not to be overlooked. Harvested after the Chardonnay – with 2018 being the one exception – the Pinot Noir grapes are destemmed. This cuvée hails from a tiny, south-facing vineyard in the hamlet of Gamay. It’s immensely appetising, with cranberry and floral aromas, crunchy acidity and chalky tannins. Drink 2022-2027.
