First tasting of Hospices 2024 cuvées: helping our customers to bid right and anticipate aging in our cellars
Prepare the auction for our customers, through several technical tastings
Being number 1 buyer is not something you can improvise! The trust of our customers from all over the world is based on a double requirement and know-how:
- in the selection with them or for them of the cuvées we recommend to bid on
- in the quality and rigor of the aging in our cellars we then offer
Thus, between the end of vinification and the auction, the Albert Bichot technical teams and Jean-David Camus, your day-to-day advisor will taste all the wines up for sale several times, in the company of Domaine des Hospices steward Ludivine Griveau. Precious moments, both relaxed and serious, that allow us to evaluate each wine, in the context of the vintage, to gather from the winemaker valuable information about her approach and the technical itinerary taken from the vine to the cellar.
... to taste and also to prepare the aging stage of the Hospices wines in our Albert Bichot cellars.
These tastings also enable us to anticipate the aging methods we will use for the cuvées entrusted to us. Choosing the most appropriate barrels, the origins of the oak (which forest, toast level, the fine or extra-fine grains, for example... ), these are all crucial parameters we're already starting to think about before the auction. It's with this sum of small details (which are not details at all) that Albert Bichot perfects every day the art of aging Hospices de Beaune wines
