{"title":"Jean-Philippe Fichet","description":"\u003cp\u003eJean-Philippe Fichet made his first vintage in 1981. After a few challenges, he settled into his current – and rather splendid – cellars at Creux du Coche, by the Hôpital de Meursault. About Jean-Philippe Fichet Over the years, Jean-Philippe has built up an array of Meursaults, all from lieux-dits. He has no Premiers or Grands Crus in the village, though there’s a small parcel of Premier Cru Referts in Puligny. In the vineyard Jean-Philippe is very much a vigneron; it’s the time in the vineyard that counts. He believes that soil health is critical, and for 15 years he’s been making and applying his own compost to his vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"2017-meursault-les-chevalieres-jean-philippe-fichet-burgundy","title":"2017 Meursault, Les Chevalières, Jean-Philippe Fichet, Burgundy","description":"The name itself hints at a wine of great breeding and class, and this does not disappoint. The nose has wisps of smoky reduction, suggesting a certain nobility, while the palate’s sophistication and chiselled, lasercut profile further back this up. A sophisticated wine. Drink 2022-2028.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Jean-Philippe explained how he and his vineyard team had to work extremely hard in the aftermath of the 2016 frost, managing the vines to make sure that the following year’s growth would not be compromised. Meticulous marathonrunner Jean-Philippe is just the man for such an arduous task. He is delighted with the results, explaining that quality is excellent and the yield was neither too big, nor too small. These wines are as reliably fresh and precise as you would expect, with each vineyard’s character shining through.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Berry Brothers \u0026 Rudd USA - Prod","offers":[{"title":"1 X 750ML","offer_id":46566728106133,"sku":"20170600750001068384","price":149.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/3807\/6821\/files\/20171068384_Jean-Philippe-Fichet_Meursault-Jean-Philippe-Fichet_2017_01_e7131080-9f04-438d-8d1c-aa3a9009b5c6.jpg?v=1762268779"},{"product_id":"2021-puligny-montrachet-les-referts-1er-cru-jean-philippe-fichet-burgundy","title":"2021 Puligny-Montrachet, Les Referts, 1er Cru, Jean-Philippe Fichet, Burgundy","description":"An overtly floral-suffused nose displays nuances of acacia, lilac and rose petal along with touch of pear, citrus and fennel. Here too the medium-bodied flavors possess a gorgeous mouthfeel that is at once generous but punchy while retaining the innate class of a fine Puligny on the youthfully austere, balanced and citrusy finish that goes on and on. This is seriously good and highly recommended as well.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e92-94\/100, Alan Meadows, Burghound (June 2023)\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Berry Brothers \u0026 Rudd USA - Prod","offers":[{"title":"1 X 750ML","offer_id":46566762709141,"sku":"20210600750008026505","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/3807\/6821\/files\/20218026505_Jean-Philippe-Fichet_Puligny-Montrachet_2021_01.jpg?v=1762268713"}],"url":"https:\/\/us.bbr.com\/collections\/jean-philippe-fichet.oembed","provider":"Berry Bros. \u0026 Rudd USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
