Pinot Noir
Platinum Medal at the 2020 Decanter World Wine Awards.
Bill Nanson, The Burgundy Report: Less depth of aroma but much more width and complexity. More zip of freshness and energy - ooh this is a bundle of energy. Dynamic, complex - brilliant finishing - bravo!
Neal Martin, Vinous: The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts 1er Cru comes from Bichot’s substantial 1.75-hectare holding, handpicked on September 11 and made with 40% whole bunch and 45% new oak. This has a high-class bouquet of pure red cherries, cranberry and wild strawberry scents, hints of rose petal and orange blossom emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp red berry fruit and a frame of quite firm tannins that should guarantee the longevity of this Malconsorts. It feels a little aloof on the finish, but it just needs time to soften its edges. 92-94 Points
Jasper Morris MW: There is a massively deep purple colour to this Malconsorts, with bundles of energetic red fruit on the nose. The palate too demonstrates this, some orange zest, otherwise entirely red fruit, no black notes, good acidity and the persistence of a grand cru. Tasted: November 2019. 92-94 Points
International Wine Challenge 2020: Youthful burgundy with silky texture, vibrant red cherry and black current aromas. Tight knit tannins and bright acidity suggests good future potential. 95 Points and Gold Medal
