Beaune Clos de L'Ermitage Albert Bichot 2019 (750ML)

94 Points, Zachys Buying Team: “A value gem among the vast Albert Bichot collection. This is a classic Beaune expression of old-world Pinot Noir with impressive mineral texture, from the Clos de l’Ermitage, just up the slope from the famed Clos des Mouches vineyard. It’s here on the Montagne St.-Désiré that the clay-limestone soils help build a wine that is all about finesse. Best of all, it’s available at a no-brainer price point for any red Burgundy fan. Hand-picked on September 20th. Aged in oak barrels (40% new oak barrels) for 14 months. Tasted with the Albert Bichot team April 2021” 4/21
