Denis Bachelet's small domaine produces wine from about 3 hectares of vineyards. Wines that are usually pre-sold before bottling. From no less than Clive Coates, "The Denis Bachelet style is for wines of intensity, great elegance, and subtlety: feminine in the best sense. They are concentrated, harmonious, pure and understated ... this domaine has not put a foot wrong."
