Established in 1983, Denis Bachelet is a boutique domaine that has created a loyal following around its small-production wines. The estate comprises 3.99 hectares of vineyards across different appellations and the vines are cultivated using ‘lutte raisonnée’. This Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is made from very old vines planted from 1907 to 1917. Grapes are entirely destemmed, and fermentation uses only natural yeasts. The wine is then aged in oak for up to 18 months before bottling.

The 1995 Charmes Chambertin Vieilles Vignes by Domaine Denis Bachelet is a testament to the exceptional vintage and the meticulous care of old vines. This Pinot Noir captures the essence of its prestigious terroir with elegance, showcasing layers of complex flavors and a harmonious balance. Displaying a subtle blend of red and black fruits, earthy undertones, and a hint of spice, finished with velvety tannins and a long, elegant finish.

A renowned collection from Domaine Truchot-Martin, Charmes-Chambertin encapsulates the pinnacle of Burgundy's Pinot Noir, reflecting the terroir's quintessential characteristics of elegance, depth and complexity.

Domaine Truchot-Martin was a highly respected wine producer in the Burgundy region of France, known for its exceptional Pinot Noir wines. The domaine was particularly famous for its old vine Pinot Noir from some of the most prestigious appellations in Burgundy, including Morey-Saint-Denis, Chambolle-Musigny, and Gevrey-Chambertin. Under the leadership of Jean-Marie Truchot, the domaine practiced traditional winemaking methods, emphasizing low yields, manual harvesting, and minimal intervention in the winery to best express the unique characteristics of each vineyard.
