Albert Bichot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru 2016

WineSaint
Dark cherry and forest floor emerge with hints of cedar and earth. The structure feels tight and angular, with chalky tannins that grip firmly. Good mineral backbone, though the wine turns somewhat hollow on the finish. Needs three to four years to soften and gain depth.
