Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 12
Deep red-ruby. Closed but pure nose offers scents of black raspberry, exotic spices, dried flowers, licorice and game. Dense, sweet and powerful but also in a somewhat cool style for the year. Not yet showing the mid-palate detail of the Bonnes-Mares but quite fresh and sappy today. The tannic but smooth finish mounts slowly and lingers impressively.

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.
