Tasting notes
Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, Albert Bichot's 2014 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine du Pavillon) is very closed on the nose and clearly lacked the complexity of the example shown from Jean Chartron alongside. The palate is sappy on the entry with touches of praline complementing the citrus fruit, although it is missing a sense of energy on the finish and feels a touch flat. This does not appear to have fulfilled its promise from barrel.

About the producer
Although the Bichot family settled in the region in 1350, Albert Bichot was founded in 1831 by Bernard Bichot. Today the producer is one of Burgundy’s most respected, making wines from both its own vineyards and with purchased fruit.
