Vintage Character From the limestone-strewn slopes of Chassagne-Montrachet, the 2022 Domaine Bachelet-Ramonet Père et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru “Les Caillerets” Blanc is a dry, Premier Cru Chardonnay that marries depth with a firm, stony mineral line. The 2022 vintage in Burgundy was marked by a generally warm, dry growing season, which encouraged ripe fruit and generous texture while well-sited vineyards like Caillerets can still preserve clarity and definition.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Expect lemon zest, ripe pear, white peach, green apple and white flowers on the nose, followed by brioche, toasted almond and gentle baking spice; the palate is medium-full, finely contoured, and finishes with wet-stone tension and a savory, lightly smoky nuance. Pair with roast chicken in a light cream sauce, seared scallops, or a butter-braised sole; for cheese, Comté is a natural match.
Winery Background Based in Chassagne-Montrachet, Domaine Bachelet-Ramonet is a family-run Burgundy estate best known for terroir-focused white wines from top villages and Premier Cru sites in the Côte de Beaune. The domaine’s reputation rests on attentive work in the vineyards and a restrained, quality-driven approach in the cellar, aiming for balance and site expression rather than overt winemaking signatures, so the natural freshness and mineral cut associated with Chassagne’s limestone soils can come through alongside the wine’s concentration and lift.
