Christian Ciamos - Director Commercial was in Colombo recently to
familiarize the local market on the history, wine making process and
value additions these wines have to offer.
"Having worked on the vinyards 25 years ago, I have a passion for the
product and it is not just a business.
"In 1831, Bernard Bichot founded a merchant house bearing his name in
Monthélie, a couple of kilometres south of Beaune. At the end of the
19th century, his grand-son Albert Bichot brought new impulsion to the
business and definitively installed its headquarters in Beaune.
The family heritage has been perpetuated from father to son since
then and in 1996, Albéric Bichot represents the 6th generation managing
the company.
Alberic Bichot is driving the business through its latest challenges
and is adapting it to changing markets and consumer demands. Under his
momentum, an upstream quality control strategy was developed at the
beginning of the 1980s in order to get the best fruit to create the best
wine and best express terroir.
Albert Bichot's expertise is also based on the respect for terroir
and nature. The House implements Sustainable vine-growing, based upon
observation and prevention. Its aim is that of protecting the earth,
preserving it for the generations to come. |
