In 2005 Marc and Alex Bachelet formed Domaine Bachelet-Monnot with the help of their Uncle Monnot and father. Given the combination of exceptional vineyards, an excellent vintage, and the brothers' attention to details in the vines and in the cellar, the first release of the Domaine's Puligny wines received immediate recognition both locally as well as internationally. The seat of the domaine is situated in Dezize-lès-Maranges, just southwest of Santenay. No herbicides are used in the vineyards and regular ploughing of the rows is carried out to manage weeds.
