Marc and Alex Bachelet have rapidly taken their 10 hectare domaine to the top of the Burgundy hierarchy. They work their vineyards naturally, eschewing herbicides. And they practice pre-ox for their whites, a technique whereby the pressed juice is allowed to oxidise before fermentation, stabilising the finished wine and obviating the risk of prem-ox i.e. the wine ageing prematurely. A domaine renowned for their electric white wines, do not ignore their reds, which are utterly delicious too. The domaine headquarters are in the delightfully-named Dézize-lès-Maranges, in the very south of the Côte de Beaune.

"The 2014 Maranges 1er Cru la Fussière Blanc has a little more exoticism on the nose thanks to a cheeky dab of peppermint tincturing the citrus and lime fruit. The palate is well balanced with good density, again, quite saline in the mouth with kiwi fruit, lime and lemon zest towards the energetic finish. It is not quite as persistent as the Santenay Blanc, but it will drink beautifully for 5-8 years, possibly longer." Neal Martin
All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab.
Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
