2019 | Albert Bichot | Corton Charlemagne Domaine du Pavillon

Pale white gold colour. Magnificent nose of coconut cream, melon, honey, lime and white blossom. Palate has almost eyewatering concentration. Long, firm, mineral finish. A superb and serious Grand Cru!

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: A rich, opulent white, this features lemon cake, lime blossom, baking spice and stone flavors. Though intense, there's also a sense of restraint, yet the finish is long and complex. Drink now through 2027.

• James Suckling: In spite of the ripe-orange and exotic-fruit character that pours from the glass, there’s nothing superficial about this wine. Thanks to its generosity and very attractive fruit, this makes a very friendly initial impression on the palate, then the intense minerality comes through, building to a serious crescendo at the very fresh finish. Drink or hold.

Producer Information

Since 1350, the Bichot family has called Burgundy home. But, it was in 1831 that Bernard Bichot founded a merchant house bearing his name in Monthélie, 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 from father to son since then. The family crest, consisting of a deer and antlers, has been synonymous with the winery since its inception. Albert Bichot owns 6 Domaines set at the heart of 5 great vinicultural regions that make up Burgundy: Chablis, Cote de Nuits, Cote de Beaune, Cote Chalonnaise, and Beaujolais. Each estate consists of vineyards cultivated with sustainable practices, as well as facilities, cellars and dedicated winemaking teams devoted to wines of that Domaine and region.
