The wines of Thomas Bachelder are inspired by his spiritual home – Burgundy – where the grapes he loves (pinot noir, chardonnay, gamay noir) originally evolved, where even the tiniest of vineyards are kept scrupulously apart in the winery, and then put separately, lovingly, obsessively into small, individual bottlings. His goal is to “keep out of the way” and let the best parcels and the most harmonious barrels come forward to liberate and define small patches of Niagara land. It takes a long time to discover terroirs, but the journey has its rewards.
750 mlThere's a startling purity in this wine. Lemons on crunchy chalk and lemon drop acidity. Low tide smells with a nice volume of fruit – incredibly rich, yet taut. Chalky mouthfeel, a mineral precision. This is the jive! Wow! A grainy mineral finish. A taut clothesline of a wine. A shocking, nervous electric minerality – this will age for a long, long time.

Bachelder Les Villages Bench Chardonnay is sourced from two vineyards sites; Twenty Mile Bench and Beamsville Bench, both on the Niagara Escarpment. It showcases it's Burgundian spirit with its combination of vibrant acidity and minerality along with stone fruits and brioche.

This is becoming a reference vineyard for Niagara, with steep stoney-silty clay and limestone soils. It's leans towards citrus and minerals with a long finish, capable of aging gracefully for another 10 years.
