Another stellar set of wines from Albert Bichot. Bichot continues its unwavering commitment to excellence, crafting wines of precision and elegance. Certified organic since 2018, the domaine integrates sustainability into its approach, ensuring a thoughtful balance between tradition and innovation.
"Grapes sourced from the Meursault and Puligny area deliver inviting aromatics of citrus, red apple, and a hint of cinnamon. The palate is textured and generous, with ripe honeydew melon flavours and a satisfying finish."
Our note
The 2023 vintage, shaped by Matthieu Mangenot’s expertise, reflects a shift from the previous year with less use of whole bunch fermentation, focusing instead on purity and clarity of fruit. Across the range, the wines showcase impressive structure, vibrant acidity, and nuanced expressions of their respective terroirs, promising early approachability for some and significant aging potential for others.
Drinking window: 2024 - 2027
What the critics say:
"A fresh lemon and lime with a really attractive racy chardonnay character along with a touch of lime blossom. A little more orchard fruit on the palate, the correct amount of oak, and a balanced long finish. Finesse more than bulk. Tasted Oct 2024 ****"
"I rather like this talc-dust nose. Gentle, pretty, well-formed fruit. Orchard in spring. White and soft greens. Soft citrus."
