Bill Nanson, The Burgundy Report:

1.5 hectares worth from 2 plots.

A little oak, a little patisserie, but a flexing of muscle – still fresh – fruit too. More density – mouth-filling again – but I’ve the impression much is held at the core of this wine. The best, most open part is the finish – wide – some interesting almost mandarin fruit in the agrume mix. Tons of potential – but wait at least 3 years…

Jancis Robinson: Cask sample. Intense, lightly smoky nose and convincing satin texture. A rich Chablis with some textural influences and some green-fruit character. This is clearly a Chablis Grand Cru. Notable freshness. Promisingly racy as well as showing the richness of 2019. 16++

Sarah Marsh MW, The Burgundy Briefing: Honeysuckle richness on the nose, with ripe white-peach aromatics. Opulent, richly muscular palate, fleshed out with succulent snd concentrated fruit. It tightens to a much colder and powerfully firm finish. 2023-29. 93 Points

Decanter Magazine

Showing more of a barrel sample nature than the Fevre wine, Bichot's Les Clos has power and richness on the palate. With a hint of toasty oak, and ripe stoned fruit characters, this will develop into a fine Grand Cru given a couple of years in bottle. There is plenty of precision here - this barrel sample doesn't quite do the wine justice but there is clearly so much to come. Drinking Window 2022 - 2030.

Fullish yellow. The complex nose shows the power of the vintage, a few drier tannins behind, fair acidity. I find this backward and difficult to judge. I think the Clos character is there, but it is reticent today. The palate does deliver detail and layers of fruit though. The finish does also suggest the necessary class. Really good length here.

Beautiful steely lime peel on the nose, youthful and elegant. Rich and concentrated palate. Lovely lime with acidity. A beautiful wine. 95 Points and Gold Medal
