Bourgogne Passetoutgrain, Albert Bichot, 2020
- Red Still
- Pinot Noir
A lovely example of Passetoutgrain, which combines Pinot Noir & Gamay for something lighter and more approachable. This stunner has a wonderfully perfumed nose, with bright, crunchy fruit and bags of freshness on the palate.
Albert Bichot's impressive range goes all the way up to crazily rare Grands Crus (with hefty price tags to match!), yet we've always been thrilled by their entry-level range of Burgundies. The whites, whether from the Macon, Chablis or Beaune, always offer incredible value for money, whilst the reds capture everything we love about Pinot Noir, with abundant red fruit, great freshness and a wonderful spicy finish.
What the critics say:
"A style of wine I’ve long enjoyed, a quirk of Burgundy whereby Pinot Noir is blended with Gamay to give an undemanding, early-drinking vin de soif. The Pinot gives style and elegance and the Gamay gives freshness and juicy fruit. The result – as here, in the hands of the 2017 International Wine Challenge Red Winemaker of the Year – is extremely affable. Crammed with succulent bramble fruit and few tannins, it just begs to be knocked back."
