MAISON ALBERT BICHOT'S family can be traced back to 1350. In 1831, Bernard Bichot, descendant of an old Burgundian family, founded the company which still carries his name. The following generations continued the worldwide extension while investing important sums in the acquisition of vineyards. In recent years, large investment and many awards including 'White Winemaker of the Year' in 2011 at the International Wine Challenge, follows on from 'Red Winemaker of the Year' in 2004. Bourgogne Aligoté is an appellation produced throughout Burgundy, especially in the Auxerre region, the Côte Chalonnaise (Chalon-sur-Saône region), the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune and Hautes-Côtes de Nuits. The nose reveals a dominance of floral aromas with hints of white flowers which evolve into mineral, fruity notes with a discreet almond note. Fresh and nervy, this wine is well-balanced with a refreshing and persistent finish.
