Tasting notes

Bright, intense colour. Red and summer fruit lifted by spicy notes. Round and balanced, with a harmonious structure and barely perceptible oak; an incredibly long finish with notes of dark chocolate.

About this wine

Albert Bichot's Échezeaux Grand Cru comes from a plot in the climat known as 'Les Champs Traversins', from an Occitan word meaning steep slope. Besides the steep incline, the soil is mainly sandy and stony, which gives a great wine of impressive elegance and completeness.

The 2018 is 100% Pinot Noir, aged 14 to 18 months in oak barrels, with 50% to 70% new oak. Bright, intense colour; red and summer fruit lifted by spicy notes; round, balanced and harmonious on the palate, with discreet oak and a remarkably long finish hinting at dark chocolate.

13.5% vol., 750 ml; ageing potential about 15 years.
