“A standout at Wine Paris 2026, and a critical acclaim for this single-vineyard Premier Cru from Nuits-Saint-Georges!”
"Produced by a small terraced vineyard spanning just a few hectares, this wine is intense, concentrated, and lively, brimming with energy and tension thanks to its lovely acidity and moderate tannins. Bright, crisp aromas of raspberry, cranberry, mineral, and crushed stone give way to a tight, firm texture that will need time to open up and reveal its full potential complexity. Made from organically grown grapes.” (James Suckling 2024)

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 (wine director), these three musketeers have successfully built a unique model of a Burgundian winery, with Bichot-labeled wines across all the appellations of Greater Burgundy, as well as four estates rich in fine crus: Long-Depaquit for Chablis, Clos-Frantin for the Côte de Nuits, Domaine du Pavillon for the Côte de Beaune, and Domaine Adélie for the Côte Chalonnaise.

About the estate:
This historic Beaune winery, led by Albéric Bichot since 1996, has not always been known for the consistency and quality of its wines. Things have changed significantly since then. 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.

About the wine:
Rich and full-bodied, this red wine offers notes of cherry, pomegranate, raspberry, and mild spices (such as cinnamon, cumin, and cardamom), with hints of iron and violet. Intense, with a long finish filled with fruit and spice. Best enjoyed between 2026 and 2042.

About the wine:
With a purple-tinged hue, this Nuits-Garden is highly approachable. Its intense, ripe aromas of juicy, flavorful black fruits evoke black plum pits and blueberry jam. With a structure of surgical precision, its juicy palate is harmoniously framed by lively acidity and silky, well-defined tannins. This wine is AB certified organic.
