Domaine Bachey-Legros works with the greatest respect for the vines. The grapes are harvested by hand. The white wine is gently pressed using a pneumatic press. Fermentation lasts two months. Red wines undergo cold maceration before a 12-day fermentation. Depending on the vintage, wines are aged between 12 and 15 months. The proportion of new barrels used varies between 20% and 30%, depending on the vintage.

Domaine Bachey-Legros produces some very fine white Burgundy wines. The most prestigious are its Chassagne-Montrachet Premiers Crus Morgeot and La Boudriotte, accompanied by a Santenay Premier Cru Les Gravières. The Village appellation includes Santenay, Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. The domaine also produces a Bourgogne Blanc.
