Albert Bichot : Latricières-Chambertin Grand cru 2017

Very complex and deep nose of super-ripe forest berries and sous bois with fine vanilla oak. The palate is concentrated and elegant, in spite of the serious tannins and crisp acidity. Long and polished finish. Try in 2021.

Very tender texture on the attack, then sovereign length, velvety depth, excellent ageing potential.

Racy and pure, featuring cherry, currant, strawberry and tobacco notes tightly bound to a robust structure. The oak treatment comes through on the finish, where a spicy element emerges. Delivers fine balance and length, with characteristic Gevrey muscle. Best from 2022 through 2040. 20 cases imported.
