Tasting Notes

86-89
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 02
Medium red. Reticent nose opens to reveal musky red berries and underbrush. Leanish but fresh, with attractive sweetness and modest flesh. Shows good balancing acidity, but lacks real grand cru volume and thrust.

Burgundy

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.
