Cork

Griotte and bramble fruit over a savoury undertow, lifted by wild mint, oregano and a whisper of dried petals. Medium-plus in body and verging on voluptuous, it is held in check by precise acidity and firm tannins; only the finish falls a little short. Beautifully crafted and delicious. Brothers Marc and Alexandre Bachelet tend around half of this walled clos on the Santenay border, where clay-rich soils lend the wine its generous frame.
