If you actually want to DRINK Burgundy, rather than saving it for decades, you can't beat Bichot. It should be noted that Bichot buys entire properties and continues to make wines on-site, rather than hauling the fruit to... Read More
The attractive red-beet and milk-chocolate nose leads you into a full-bodied, tannic wine that’s built for long aging. Plenty of ripe plum on the very bold, almost massive palate. Expands nicely as it aerates, but you need... Read More
From the thin soils in the upper section of this vineyard, this is substantial if not forward and is produced with 50-year-old vines which are farmed biodynamically. The proportion of new wood is fairly important, but not terribly... Read More
