About this wine
Description & facts
The Bichot family winery is one of the most influential producers in Burgundy. The family settled there in 1350 and in 1831 Bernard Bichot started a wine business in Monthélie, on the Côte de Beaune and his son Hippolyte bought the first vines in Volnay. Son Albert Bichot gave the family business a new impulse at the end of the 19th century and settled permanently in the city of Beaune, where it is still located 5 centuries later. At that time the wines were already famous worldwide.
