Albéric Bichot wondering about the reception the Bichot 12s are getting!

An excellent way to finish 2013 London tastings!
Yesterday I went to my last London tasting of 2013 – a look at the 2012 Burgundies from Albert Bichot with Albéric Bichot in attendance. Most of the wines shown were still cask samples but as a first impression of 2012 it was very favourable. There was lovely purity in their Chablis with concentration and texture, while almost all the reds were silky and seductive with varying degrees of power.
