About this Item
The first traces of the Bichot family date back to 1214 and records show that they settled in Burgundy in 1350 – in their fief of Châteauneuf-en-Auxois. In 1831, Bernard Bichot founded a wine trading business in his name in Monthélie. Passed down from father to son since 1831, Albéric Bichot (the 6th generation) joined the company in the early 90s and took over its management in 1996. While he fully respects family traditions, he is completely focused on the future. Searching for the finest grapes, Albert Bichot has gradually bought vineyards in the most sought-after locations in Burgundy. Today, Albert Bichot owns six outstanding domaines with the finest Burgundy terroirs in Chablis, Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise and the Beaujolais.

Critics Ratings
'An elegant wine, this has dark tannins and a sumptuous texture, which is smoothed by generous fruit and acidity. On the finish, a spice note and a dry structure promise that this will age well.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 93/100 (Apr 2013)
