A perfect example of partnership, Château de Dracy's wines have been distributed by Albert Bichot since 1905! Built in 1298 as a military fortress under the Duchy of Burgundy, the Château has undergone major transformations over the centuries. The winery and cellar, built in 1728, are still operational to this day. The vines are located in the region of Couchois, in the northern part of the Saône et Loire department, in the continuity of the Côte de Beaune.
Albert Bichot Bourgogne Chardonnay - Château de Dracy's offers a delicate nose featuring notes of flowers. Bold start to the palate, which is soft and well balanced featuring lovely minerality. The finish is silky and fragrant with a hint of hazelnut. Enjoy this wine with simply prepared fish and seafood, or white meats and poultry, grilled or served in a light sauce.
Since 1350, the Bichot family has called Burgundy home. It was in 1831 that Bernard Bichot founded a merchant house bearing his name in Monthéli. His grandson, Albert Bichot, continued the family legacy by founding the winery, Maison Albert Bichot, at the end of the 19th century. The family heritage has continued to this day, with the 6th generations managing the winery. The winery’s mission is to utilize the best fruit to create the best wine and best expression of terroir. Albert Bichot owns 6 Domaines set at the heart of 5 great vinicultural regions that make up Burgundy: Chablis, Cote de Nuits, Cote de Beaune, Cote Chalonnaise, and Beaujolais. Each estate consists of vineyards cultivated with sustainable practices, as well as facilities, cellars and dedicated winemaking teams devoted to wines of that Domaine and region.
