The Maranges 1er Cru "La Fussière" 2021 from Domaine Bachelet-Monnot is an exceptional proof of why brothers Marc and Alexandre Bachelet are considered among the most rising producers in Burgundy. Coming from the largest Premier Cru vineyard of Maranges, this wine balances between traditional structure and modern purity.

On the nose it is particularly expressive, with aromas of fresh red cherries, raspberries and plums, framed by notes of violet and a subtle earthy feel. On the palate, the body is medium to full, with intense minerality, lively acidity and silky tannins leading to a long, cool finish. Despite the challenges of the 2021 vintage, the wine maintains a wonderful "classic" finesse that makes it enjoyable now, but also capable of aging.
