Tasting Notes

91-93
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 07
Bright red-ruby, a bit less saturated than the Combottes. Reticent but pure nose hints at red cherry, rose petal and violet. Juicy, focused and highly aromatic in the mouth; offers lovely perfume but less early density of texture than the Combottes. But this is even less evolved, and the tannins are more obvious today.

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.
