Yes, these guys do Beaujolais in a Bordeaux bottle.
Great nose features ripe cherry and berries, along with a rich, humus-like earthy note and scents of old barrels. Fruity but fairly structured in the mouth. Significant tannin frames the sultry, oozy fruit. Initially, it’s a little austere in the finish (a la the region whose bottle shape is used), but more fruit comes through as it gets air. Unique and very good. — 2 years ago

Quite good and interesting to have a non lapierre style wine. Let it air. A bit “austere” in terms of wanting air for a Beauj but quite excellent concentration of red fruit. Second bottle of this hit have one more.
Addendum after an hour. This improved incredibly with some air. Proper serious Beauj. You could let this age for a few years for sure. — 5 months ago
Is this the best wine in Beaujolais? I think so. Super refined and complex nose of leather, dark cherries, earth and mineral. A lipstick like intensity. Saline and mineral. Just a stunning refined and complex nose that defies the appellation. Palate is round, elegant and concentrated, with such grace and nimbleness. Amazing elegant and delicate structure suggests this has a decade or more. Wonderful long finish. Grand Cru all the way. A stunning wine and I can’t wait to see how it opens. — 2 years ago
Awesome!!! Soft and quiet, baking spice and florals. Still very fresh and not drinking like five year old Beaujolais. — 9 years ago

Château des Bachelards ‘Comtesse de Vazeilles’ Saint-Amour 2019: Medium-light bodied. Great acidity. Low tannins. Blackberry. Strawberry. Pomegranate. Herbs. Earth. Smooth soft finish. Honestly, I don’t drink much Gamay however this kind of wine would definitely make me reconsider my reasoning. Beaujolais is definitely an area I need to explore more of in 2023! All in all, a delicious expression with great fruit, balance & QPR. Happy Sunday to all! Cheers🍷 — a year ago
Natural but very technical. Mocha, would, ample tannins. Great work. — 4 years ago

For a game this is pretty rough and tumble. Lots of crushed rock and kind of crunchy savory fruits more so than anything light and limpip and sweet. Not really chewing on anything because it was pretty pure and clean, but just overall mineral and a bit funky.  — 25 days ago
