Domaine Aurore Bachelet - Maranges 1er Cru - Les Clos Roussots 2021
Domaine Aurore Bachelet is located in Santenay, south of the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy . Holder of a diploma from a business school and steeped in international experience, Aurore has chosen to reconnect with her origins in Burgundy. After training in viticulture and oenology, she perfected her skills for five years alongside her father, Vincent Bachelet. At the same time, she is investing in the development of her own field. Aurore produces the two emblematic grape varieties of Burgundy: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. For each vintage, she strives to respect the Burgundian identity with vinification as little interventionist as possible.

After manual harvesting, the harvest is put into cold pre-fermentation vatting . A part (40%) is kept in whole clusters. Fermentation takes place in vats, regular manual punching down and watering are carried out. The wine is aged for 18 months in oak barrels .
