Albert Bichot Bourgogne Aligote 'Champ Renard' 2023
Introduction
Albert Bichot Domaine Adélie Bourgogne Aligoté 'Champ Renard' originates from the Mercurey region in the Côte Chalonnaise subregion of Burgundy, France. The estate, named after Albéric Bichot's daughter Adélie, was established in 2005 as part of the family owned Maison Albert Bichot, which has a legacy dating back to 1831. The winemaking philosophy emphasizes an 'organic spirit' and a commitment to capturing the precision and refinement of Burgundy's diverse terroirs through minimal intervention.
Wine Description
This wine displays a bright pale gold colour with crystalline clarity. The sensory profile features a fresh and floral nose dominated by white flowers, citrus peel, and green apple, underscored by notes of ginger spice and a mineral 'ocean breeze'. On the palate, it is fresh and lively with a vibrant acidity and a round, consistent body that offers flavours of kiwi fruit, grapefruit, and a touch of honeysuckle. The finish is clean, refreshing, and persistent, often revealing a hint of dried fruit or almonds. Crafted from 100% Aligoté grapes grown on calcareous clay soils, this wine is typically aged for 8 months in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks on fine lees to preserve its natural vivacity. The ABV is approximately 12% to 12.5%. While Maison Albert Bichot focuses on organic principles, this specific bottling is not widely listed as a certified organic product.
