“Very fresh, with blood orange aromas. Lively and well-structured on the palate, with medium body and lovely finesse, though less tannic than wines from this appellation used to be. A long finish full of character, with notes of forest floor. Can be enjoyed now, but will reach its peak starting in 2026. ” (James Suckling 2025)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2022 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
This historic winery, founded in 1831, is now run with great energy by Albéric Bichot, the sixth generation of a family whose presence in Burgundy dates back to the 13th century. Supported by Alain Serveau (technical director) and Christophe Chavel (winemaking director), these three musketeers have successfully built a unique model for a Burgundian winery, producing Bichot wines across all the appellations of Greater Burgundy, as well as four estates rich in fine crus: Long-Depaquit in the Chablis region, Clos-Frantin in the Côte de Nuits, Domaine du Pavillon in the Côte de Beaune, and Domaine Adélie in the Côte Chalonnaise.

Rated Estate (2022 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
This historic Beaune winery, led by Albéric Bichot since 1996, has not always stood out for the consistency and quality of its wines. Things have now changed significantly. Under the Albert Bichot label, you’ll find wines from six estates: Long-Depaquit in Chablis (see this address), Clos Frantin and Château-Gris in the Côte de Nuits, Domaine du Pavillon, Domaine Adélie in the Côte Chalonnaise, and Domaine de Rochegrès in Beaujolais. Each of these estates has its own winemaking facilities and dedicated teams, led by the general technical director, Alain Serveau.

A beautiful bouquet. Rich aromas and a smooth texture, with notes of strawberry that round out the tannins. A delicate herbal bitterness and a sweet flavor of Alpine strawberries. A finish with vegetal notes. 2027–2032
