Meursault Les Criots, Domaine du Pavillon 2020
Maison Albert Bichot has been passed down for 6 generations since 1831 and today it manages individual Domaines rather than housing all sites under one property. Domaine Long-Depaquit in Chablis, Domaine du Pavillon in Pommard and the jewel in the crown Domaine du Clos Frantin in NSG are the organic Domaines. Having supported the team for a number of vintages we have been able to acquire decent allocations across all three and are thrilled to be able to offer their top wines. "From a limestone rich lieu-dit almost on the northern border with Volnay, this is a super site for Meursault and in 2020 the wine really shines. Like Baby Bear’s porridge – everything is just right: Orchard and citrus fruits plus a little spice on the nose, then you get the intensity of concentration of the vintage and plenty of ripeness and mid-palate density, but also cooler fruit and a fresh salty vein of acidity. Really pleasurable now, but will doubtless evolve with another year or so in bottle." Tom Harrow, Head Wine Guru
Puligny-Montrachet 'Les Charmes', Domaine Alain Chavy 2020
We think Alain Chavy might be Puligny's best-kept secret, which is saying something in a village where every grower seems to have a cult following. This Les Charmes from 2020 shows exactly why we're such fans: it's everything you want from premier cru Puligny without the ego or the price tag that usually comes with it. The Chavy family have been farming these slopes since the 1970s, working organically long before it was fashionable, and their Les Charmes sits perfectly between the power of Meursault and the tension of Chassagne.
