Chardonnay, „Secret de Famille”, 2021, Burgundy Côte d’Or, Domaine Albert Bichot

The Côte d’Or is the heart of Burgundy where the most prestigious wines of the region are produced. In order to highlight this exceptional terroir, the extended name of “Bourgogne Côte d’Or” has been created in 2017. Our white “Secret de Famille” (Family Secret) comes from this very limited and specific geographical area; it is indeed crafted from a carefully sourced blend of grapes (vineyards in villages well-known for their white wines: Saint Aubin, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet...). We treat these wines as “Villages” wines, with a "haute-couture" vinification and ageing.

The nose is dominated by hints of citrus and white flowers, and evolve in notes of honey and dried fruits. The mouth is very balanced, skillfully blending vivacity and roundness.

With a meal, this "Secret de Famille" will use the charms of its aromatic palette on seafood, fish cooked in sauce or simply-prepared white meats.
