In the last few years, the noble house of Albert Bichot has won much praise for its fine red and white Burgundies—challenging famous rivals for quality, and winning hands-down on price. They’ve won their share of “Producer of the Year” awards from important international shows and The Wine Advocate writes that “they are making extremely fine wines.”
So, you can imagine our excitement when they sent a small allocation from one of their top properties and the superb 2020 vintage, called “an exceptional Burgundy vintage” by Decanter.
Château de Dracy traces its history all the way back to 1298—the estate’s vineyards are a Monopole—fully controlled by the château (rare in Burgundy) and lie in the Côte de Beaune town of Couches. Amazingly, the estate has collaborated with Albert Bichot for the last 110 years(!).
What should you expect in the glass? Classic Chardonnay, only as Burgundy can do it: Look for layers of pure, nervy citrus and Golden Delicious apples, flecked with subtle flinty notes and a hint of toasty oak on the long, complex, refreshing finish. This is a classy dinner white that will pair well with seafood and white meat dishes—though it’s equally delicious on its own.
With quality through the roof and collectors snapping up the best values, we strongly recommend placing a quick order to avoid missing out.
