Tasting Notes

89
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 12
Medium red. Reticent aromas of diffuse red fruits, brown spices and smoky minerality. Brighter in the mouth, with a saline quality to the slightly medicinal flavors of red cherry, strawberry and dried flowers. Not a particularly opulent or fleshy style. Finishes with an edge of acidity and a note of fresh herbs.

Burgundy, in eastern France, is one of the world's top wine regions, famed for exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Its unique terroir, with varied soils and microclimates, defines its wines. Key subregions include Côte d'Or (with Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune), Chablis, and Côte Chalonnaise and Mâconnais, offering great value. Burgundy wines are categorised by Grand Cru, Premier Cru, and Village levels. Top producers like Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leflaive, and Domaine Armand Rousseau exemplify Burgundy's commitment to quality and tradition.
