Ramonet vines, Bachey-Legros prices. Les Petits Clos was planted by Jean-Claude Ramonet's grandfather in 1950 and 1951, and Grandpa Bachey bought the parcel from the Ramonet family — so this is old-vine Chardonnay in Morgeot, one of Chassagne-Montrachet's most prestigious premier crus, on a south-facing slope capturing maximum sunlight. The Bachey-Legros name sits in Santenay rather than Chassagne, which is the whole reason a wine of this pedigree doesn't cost what its neighbors do. Six generations of the family have farmed here, and the domaine is run today by brothers Samuel and Lenaic, who bring new ideas without abandoning the old ways. Old vines and a great south-facing slope are not complicated ideas; they are just hard to find together at a sane price.

More about Domaine Bachey-Legros

Bachey-Legros is located on the oldest street in the picturesque little village of Santenay-les-Haut. The neighborhood looks much the same as it did 200 or 300 years ago. Indeed much of what they are about is decidedly “old.”

The family of Bachey-Legros has been farming in and around Santenay for 6 generations, going back to the 19th century, and they are most proud of their old vines, most of which were planted between 1935 and 1955. They farm these vines fastidiously, using traditional techniques and eschewing chemical treatments. They employ a similar old-school approach in the cellar, with gentle extractions and elevage in top notch barrels of varying ages.

Yes, “old” is definitely an apt word here, except when you are talking about the current generation of proprietors Samuel and Lénaic. These brothers are definitely bringing fresh ideas to the operation while continuing the long traditions of their family.

Flatiron's Take

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast chicken with tarragon, sole meunière, scallops in beurre blanc, lobster risotto, veal in cream sauce, or a well-aged Comté.

Tasting Profile

Dry white Burgundy with aromas of white peach, citrus and hazelnut over a stony, faintly smoky note. Medium to full bodied and concentrated from the old vines, with bright acidity keeping it lifted rather than heavy. Long, saline finish.
