Clos de la Perrière Fixin Premier Cru, Albert Bichot 2020
Producer/négociant Maison Albert Bichot was founded in Beaune in 1831 and remains family-owned, with Albéric Bichot currently at the helm. Despite being a significant player in Burgundy (it’s the leading buyer at the celebrated Hospices de Beaune auction), Maison AB leads the way in sustainability and manages to maintain the ethos and accessibility of a much smaller artisanal grower. Very bright colour, High-toned cherry and cedar and whiff of woodsmoke. Supple but rich attack, mostly red berries and red plums: pleasingly aerien, the wine drifts to cheekbones, showing off mild spice and a little woodsmoke, with plum skin tannins and blood orange acidity. This is pretty sophisticated and lively - shows the quality of the this once fabled terroirs. Tom Harrow, Wine Guru
Premier Cru 'Clos La Renarde', Domaine Paul & Marie Jacqueson 2019
Founded by Henri Jacqueson in 1947, this esteemed domaine has remained a family affair, with his son Paul taking the reins in 1972, followed by Paul’s daughter Marie in 2006, and more recently, his son Pierre. Recognised as one of the finest in the Côte Chalonnaise, the domaine spans 13 hectares of ideally situated, often very old vines. They rigorously prune to limit yields to around 35 hl/ha and work the vineyards entirely by hand, employing minimal treatments. As one of the few producers in the village to hand-pick all their grapes, their winemaking is exceptionally skilled, with careful use of new oak (20% for whites and 25% for reds) resulting in beautifully crafted wines that are ripe, intense, and remarkably elegant.
