WINE DESCRIPTION
Albert Bichot Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits hails from the higher elevation Hautes-Côtes de Nuits appellation in Burgundy, known for giving lighter more delicate styles of wines that are more approachable in youth. After harvest the grapes, the wines fermented in thermoregulated stainless steel vats to retain the delicate fruit flavors. The wine is then aged in a mix of stainless steel vats and a small proportion of oak barrels for roughly a year to round out the tannins and add a touch of complexity.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Albert Bichot Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits reveals enticing aromas of red berries, such as raspberries and cherries, accompanied by subtle floral notes.These fragrances are complemented by hints of earthiness and a touch of spice, adding complexity to the bouquet. The palate is elegant and refined, with a medium body and silky tannins. The red fruit flavors persist, accompanied by a refreshing acidity that brings vibrancy to the wine. There is a gentle touch of oak, contributing to the overall structure and providing a subtle spicy undertone.
