WINE DESCRIPTION

Albert Bichot's Gevrey-Chambertin hails from one of the most renowned villages in Burgundy, a region famous for producing some of the world's most exquisite Pinot Noir wines. The Bichot family, with a winemaking heritage dating back to the 19th century, expertly crafts this wine to express the characteristic finesse and power of the appellation. Sourced from vineyards with rich limestone and clay soils, the wine is a quintessential expression of Gevrey-Chambertin, known for its sturdy structure and generous bouquet. Aging in French oak barrels polishes the wine's profile, adding complexity and elegance to its innate intensity.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

The Albert Bichot Gevrey-Chambertin captivates with a ruby color that is classic to Pinot Noir.The nose offers an aromatic array of ripe red and black cherries, underscored by a savory earthiness and a whisper of fine oak. The palate experiences a tapestry of berry flavors, enlivened by a mineral streak and supported by well-knit tannins that promise graceful aging. Notes of spice, forest floor, and a subtle gamey quality provide depth and complexity. The finish is persistent, with a silky texture and just enough acidity to keep the experience fresh and engaging, embodying the revered character of Gevrey-Chambertin.
