Albert Bichot – Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru (ECO) 2020 75 cl.
Maison Albert Bichot France
“Charmes-Chambertin” is one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s nine Grand Crus. The “Charmes-Chambertin” and “Mazoyères-Chambertin” areas of appellation are the same, but “Charmes-Chambertin” is more commonly used.
The nose boasts great depth and features notes of red fruit (raspberry, red currant), and flowers (peony, rose, violet…) along with a delicate hint of oak which will evolve over time to more animal and spicy aromas. Power and elegance come together marvellously on the palate for voluptuous mouthfeel.
Taste this wine with finely prepared roasted or stewed meats (beef, lamb, pork, game, duck), or with medium to mature cheeses.
Recipe suggestion: beef tenderloin served with a red wine reduction
Serve at 16-17°C (60-62°F).
Long aging potential: 7 to 10 years and more.
