Albert Bichot Chardonnay Origines, Burgundy
Looking for a Burgundy Chardonnay that combines freshness, roundness, and nuance? At Albert Bichot, Origines comes from a variety of plots of calcareous clay, at varying altitudes and with varying exposure. This diversity, combined with careful vinification and aging, results in an aromatic style that is both vibrant and creamy. Albert Bichot is a leading Burgundy house with a broad portfolio of specialized Chardonnays, from accessible cuvées in the twenty euros to prestigious wines that rank among the top internationally.
Vineyards and region
The grapes come from various plots that combine calcareous clay with varying altitudes and exposures. Calcareous clay typically emphasizes tension and finesse, while the blend of exposition promotes ripe fruit while maintaining freshness. This creates the foundation for a wine that is both citrus-driven and round in texture.
Vinification and maturation
Harvesting is done by hand. Approximately eighty percent is fermented in stainless steel for pure fruit expression and twenty percent in oak barrels for extra layering. Maturation follows on fine lees, with approximately eighty percent in steel and twenty percent in oak, for nine to eleven months. What exactly does aging on fine lees mean? The young wine rests on its fine yeast deposits, increasing texture, creaminess, and depth without overpowering the fruit.

Tasting notes and serving suggestions
On the nose, you'll taste fresh citrus and white blossom, giving way to notes of honey and dried fruit. The palate is energetic and precise, with a natural balance between vibrancy and creaminess, and a refreshing, clean finish. Serve at ten to twelve degrees Celsius with simply prepared fish and seafood, or with grilled white meat and poultry, or with a light sauce.
