Martin's Pinot Noir vines are planted on the same hill as the Clos de Beaujeu vineyard, but the site is north facing. The vines were planted in the 1990's and like Beaujeu, the soil is very stoney limestone and bordered by forests. The 2022 was made two thirds in tank and one third in neutral...

100% Spatburgunder (Pinot Noir). 12% alc. Half the grapes come from the Krov Paradies behind the winery, a limestone and clay site. The other half comes from the Krov Letterlay, a steep site of grey slate, contributing Pinot of more tension and less overt ripeness. Grapes are destemmed and...

Located within the Van Duzer Corridor AVA, Johan is an 85-acre certified-Biodynamic site.

The wine fermented with 30% whole clusters, and aged...

The majority of the fruit comes from a parcel called Concis du Champs and a small part comes from Les Buttes. It's structured and the most tannic of the reds from the Bachelet brothers. The tannins give support to the dark fruit and floral minerality on the palate. Aged for 24 months in barrel.
