"Supple and harmonious, with bright red fruit framed by elegant tannins. Balanced and approachable, with a lingering perfumed finish."
Stewart Pryce, Honest Grapes Wine Club Manager
Albert Bichot is one of Burgundy’s most established houses, with over 100 ha of owned vineyards and access to an additional 250 ha.
In 2024, Bichot's lighter, elegant style really suited the vintage, producing wines that combine freshness, finesse, and approachable charm across the range. The reds show lifted aromatics and pure fruit, while the whites are expressive without being heavy, balancing richness and vivacity beautifully.
What the critics say:
"A fuller ruby red in colour, with a denser bouquet than the village wine, quite a plush raspberry and strawberry fruit. If the bouquet does not quite display the precision of the village wine, the value of Malconsorts emerges through a burst of much more energetic fruit on the palate, with the spice which many find in Vosne-Romanée and I do here. A good level of acidity, and the tannins are refined. Still plenty more to emerge. Drink from 2029-2034. Tasted Oct 2025."
"This is also overtly spicy and quite floral as well on the more deeply pitched nose of plum, black cherry and a hint of kirsch. There is better volume and more evident power as well on the stony broad-shouldered flavors that are presently very compact on the bitter pit fruit-inflected finale. This youthfully austere effort is very promising but note well that it's a wine very much built-to-age. *Outstanding*"
"The 2024 Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts 1er Cru has one of the better aromatics from Bichot this vintage, with expressive red berry fruit, crushed stone and light rose petal scents emerging with time. The palate is well balanced, open and expressive, lightly spiced, with a bit of backbone here and more weight on the finish compared to other red cuvées that I tasted at Bichot."
