Another stellar set of wines from Albert Bichot. Bichot continues its unwavering commitment to excellence, crafting wines of precision and elegance. Certified organic since 2018, the domaine integrates sustainability into its approach, ensuring a thoughtful balance between tradition and innovation.
"A commanding wine with deep red and black fruit, hints of earth and spice, and rich texture. While powerful, it retains freshness from its acidity and displays great structure. This Clos de Vougeot promises exceptional longevity."
Our note
The 2023 vintage, shaped by Matthieu Mangenot’s expertise, reflects a shift from the previous year with less use of whole bunch fermentation, focusing instead on purity and clarity of fruit. Across the range, the wines showcase impressive structure, vibrant acidity, and nuanced expressions of their respective terroirs, promising early approachability for some and significant aging potential for others.
What the critics say:
"A dense ruby purple. The nose is four-square, indicating volume but not detail. Some oak, not overdone. A very significant volume of fruit, dark raspberry, actually very impressive. Very dense, a little bit monolithic, fair enough for Clos Vougeot but the fruit is still engaging. Tasted Oct 2024 ****"
"A vivid fan of fresh red fruit through which minerality runs like graphite lines. Peppery fragrance. Very smart. Great balance. Fresh and vibrant but also focused."
