Description:
Maison Albert Bichot was founded in 1831 - it is still actively managed by the Bichot family. They are both growers and negociants, paying equal attention to the negociant wines as they do to their own; however, it is the company's domaines in which we have greatest interest. Over the years Bichot has carefully cherry-picked and purchased domaines and properties in Burgundy which have either an existing reputation or at least the potential for greatness. Once purchased, each domaine is put under the control of a grower/winemaker who enjoys a large degree of autonomy from the parent company. The result is a selection of outstanding domaine wines of great integrity, superb character and importantly 'gout de terroir'.

This wine is produced from selected old Pinot Noir vines with highly precise characteristics. During the growing season, restricted yields are produced through drastic debudding and cluster thinning if necessary; while the soil has little or no fertiliser, and vine protection techniques are adopted that are friendly to the environment and other plant life. This has produced a dark, sparkling ruby coloured wine with a very expressive nose showing blackcurrant and dark berries. In the mouth it is solid and intense, with structure against a very clean, fruity background. (6 x 75 cl)
