Albert Bichot Clos des Mouches Beaune Premier Cru Blanc 2018
Out of stock
The first traces of the Bichot family date back to 1214. They settled in Burgundy in 1350, in their fief of Ch?teauneuf-en-Auxois. The family's coat of arms has not changed since nor has its symbol, a doe (biche).
Alb?ric Bichot joined the company in the early 90s and took over its management in 1996. Though he fully respects family traditions, he is completely focused on the future.
From Bichot...
It was not the presence of flies ("mouches") but of bees and beehives in this area located south of Beaune, overlooking Pommard, that gave the vineyard its name. "Clos des Mouches" is one of Burgundy's gems and is certainly in the same league as a Grand Cru. Indeed, its location on the slope gives this wine a great deal of precision and purity.
The notes of white flowers, honey and beeswax are telling signs of a high-caliber wine. The palate is racy and chiselled with incomparable length.
