It is exactly the wine, which drunk 6 or 7 years ago, switched me onto the quality renaissance at Bichot – let’s see what ten years brings. 2001 Albert Bichot, Vosne-Romanée Medium, medium-plus colour. The nose is still interesting,… Read More
The 2009s of Albert Bichot
Tasted in Beaune 28th July 2010.
