Tasting Notes

90-92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 99
Similar full medium red. Tangy aromas of raspberry, cherry, roasted coffee, spice and underbrush. Fuller and more voluminous, but not as extroverted today as the above. This has a sound structure, but there's nothing brutal about it. Sweet and very long, with fine tannins.

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.
