Note di degustazione
The 2014 Chablis Grand Cru les Clos is raised 65% in stainless steel and 35% in wooden barrels for ten months, plus another six all in stainless steel. It has a slightly smudged bouquet that should be more detailed. The palate is straightforward with green apple and nectarine notes, but there is little mineralité or tension here. This should be better given the vineyard and the quality of the superior Vaudésir.

Reticent but complex aromas of lime blossom, hazelnut, minerals and wet stone. Drier and more austere than the Blanchots, with a juiciness verging on painful to its grapefruit zest and crushed rock flavors. Seriously mineral wine with excellent extract and chewy length. Boasts good depth but not quite the depth or dimension of the Blanchots.
Superb ripeness and fragrance, great citrus fruit clarity and a weighty but gentle palate. Crunchy, intense, tight. (RH)
(35% oak; still a touch of malic remaining; one-third of this wine is from a 2006 planting, one-third is from 40-year-old vines and one-third 50): Pale, green-tinged yellow. Very subtle aromas of fresh apple, hazelnut and powdered stone complicated by dried fruits, bitter almond and fresh herbs; shows a positive greenness. Quite dense and rich but remarkably weightless considering its superb breadth. Finishes very long and brisk, with dusty minerality and classic Chablis bitterness. The very small yield here brought more aromatic complexity than volume, noted Mangenot.

Although the Bichot family settled in the region in 1350, Albert Bichot was founded in 1831 by Bernard Bichot. Today the producer is one of Burgundy’s most respected, making wines from both its own vineyards and with purchased fruit.
