Description
A complex and refined Hautes-Côtes de Nuits red wine
The estate
Although the history of the Bichot family dates back to 1214, the family only settled in Burgungy in 1350. From then on, the deer, the family’s coat of arms, has spanned the centuries and become the emblem of the House. The trading house was created in Monthélie in 1831, under the impetus of Bernard Bichot, and grew rapidly during the 19th century, thus becoming the official supplier to the Royal Swedish Court. An independent, family-owned business, Albert Bichot is one of the fine names that has left its mark on the wine industry and the influence of Burgundy wines around the world. Since 1996, the family’s 6th generation has been running the company, harmoniously blending modernity with family tradition.
