Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 01
Medium-deep red. Exotic raspberry, strawberry, pepper, sandalwood and smoked meat on the nose. Juicy, spicy and tangy but currently a bit pinched; turned a bit dryer in the glass. Rather linear wine with dusty, light tannins and a slight finishing dryness.

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.
