✨ Technical Specifications
Maison Albert Bichot's Bourgogne Blanc represents a classic, harmonious introduction to the white wines of Burgundy. Sourced from a carefully selected mosaic of vineyards spanning the Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise, and the Mâconnais, this wine showcases the art of regional blending that historic négociants perfected over the centuries. By combining grapes from cooler northern parcels, which impart crisp green apple notes and vibrant acidity, with fruit from warmer southern slopes that contribute ripe stone fruit and roundness, Bichot crafts a balanced expression of Burgundy's signature white grape. A portion of the blend is aged in stainless steel vats to preserve fresh fruit purity, while the remainder undergoes traditional oak barrel aging to add subtle structure, complexity, and a delicate touch of vanilla.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1831 by Bernard Bichot in Monthélie and relocated to Beaune in 1912, Maison Albert Bichot represents six generations of Burgundian wine merchant and domaine prestige. Under the leadership of Albéric Bichot, the family has developed a mosaic of six autonomous domaines spanning over 100 hectares from Chablis to Beaujolais: Domaine Long-Depaquit, Domaine du Clos Frantin, Château-Gris, Domaine du Pavillon, Domaine Adélie, and Domaine de Rochegrès. The estate vineyards in the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, and Côte Chalonnaise hold Ecocert organic certification, farmed with meticulous soil preservation and site-specific viticulture. Vinification emphasizes non-interventionist principles, gravity-fed cellar handling, ambient yeast fermentations, and delicate oak maturation tailored to each terroir's character. The house is celebrated for benchmark expressions including its iconic Chablis Grand Cru monopole La Moutonne, Grand Cru bottlings from Chambertin and Clos de Vougeot, and a legacy as one of the premier buyers at the Hospices de Beaune auctions.
