Our note

Pacalet’s approach to whole-bunch fermentation can sometimes lend a rustic edge, but this vintage reveals no such characteristics, showcasing refinement and seamless integration. With only 5% new oak employed, the wines maintain a delicate balance, focusing on fruit expression and terroir. Reds spent an extended 14–16 months in barrel, lending complexity and finesse without over-extraction. While not a high-acidity year, the whites shine with freshness and depth, and the reds balance elegance with structure, offering nuanced profiles that will reward both early enjoyment and further aging.

Pacalet features as one of the Top 15 Négociants & Cooperatives in Tim Atkin's Burgundy 2023 Special Report.
