What makes Burgundy wine so special—and why does terroir matter so much? In this episode of The Wine CEO Podcast, I sit down with Matthieu Mangenot of Domaines Albert Bichot to explore the philosophy behind one of Burgundy's most respected family-run wineries. With over 20 years of sustainability practices in the vineyards, Albert Bichot is leading the way in organic winemaking, low-intervention techniques, and environmentally responsible wine production—all while preserving the classical identity that makes Burgundy so iconic. As both an agronomist and enologist, Matthieu brings a rare, full-circle perspective to winemaking—ensuring that exceptional wine begins with exceptional grapes. In this episode, we discuss: what terroir really means in Burgundy wine, why you can't make great wine without great grapes, how sustainability and organic certification impact wine quality, and so much more!
