ALBERT BICHOT 2016 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Rouge 'Les Malconsorts' (Burgundy, FR)

"Les Malconsorts" is an exceptional Premier Cru from Vosne-Romanée. This jewel of a Climat is located immediately adjacent to some mythical plots. As the crow flies, Romanée-Conti is less than 400 metres away and Richebourg less than 600!

This wine expresses the exceptional character of a great terroir combined with a great grape variety. Its fine, complex nose features notes of red and black fruit (cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant) combined with delicate nuances of oak and subtle hints of spices. On the palate, this wine's smooth, full-bodied texture is supported by elegant tannic structure. An exceptional, classy wine that is endowed with remarkable length.
On the palate, all the crispiness of Pinot Noir with very pleasing, smooth, mouth-filling tannic texture.
