First 2012 Tasters Guild Event
 BURGUNDY WINE DINNER
with Alexandre Leclerq, Maison Albert Bichot

at Quarter Bistro, 300 South Maple, Ann Arbor
Monday, January 16, 7:00 pm

   Founded in 1831 and now in its sixth generation of family ownership, the venerable Beaune maison Albert Bichot maintains its traditional role of negociant-eleveur, buying grapes and young wines from small winegrowers and fashioning them into hand-crafted, finished cuvees with the personal stamp of the house. It also plays the role of winegrower, having acquired during recent years an impressive quartet of wine estates: Domaine Long-Depaquit in Chablis, Domaine du Clos Frantin on the Cote de Nuits, Domaine du Pavillon on the Cote de Beaune, and Domaine Adelie on the Cote Chalonnaise.
