Albert Bichot - Montrachet 2017

Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

A legendary wine, a symbol and a part of Burgundy's heritage, but also a worldwide reference for the most famous Chardonnays. A true gem, this appellation stretches across both the villages of Chassagne and Puligny (and to which the name "Mont Chauve" has been given).

Rich, very refreshing, long and progressive, the nose develops balsamic notes with a mixture of white-fleshed fruit, almond, and spice with a hint of vanilla and coconut.
Very round and full-bodied, this wine boasts harmonious balance between its mineral structure and its remarkable length.

Since 1350, the Bichot family has called Burgundy home. In 1831, Bernard Bichot founded a merchant house bearing his name a couple of kilometers south of Beaune. At the end of the 19th century, his grandson Albert Bichot took the family business into a new direction and created the winery, Maison Albert Bichot as we know it. The family heritage has been perpetuated since then. Albert Bichot has acquired 250 acres of vineyards in the most reputed growing areas throughout Burgundy. The family crest, consisting of a deer and antlers, has been synonymous with the winery since its inception.
