Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 13 Feb 20
The 2017 Bourgogne soars from the glass with aromas of wild berries, spices and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, supple and succulent, with powdery tannins and a fleshy core of fruit, it's delicious and charming. What's more, Pataille produced 25,000 bottles. Since some of the vines that go into this blend have been reclassified as Marsannay, the cuvée will shrink in coming vintages.

Bourgogne Fine Wine

Bourgogne

Bourgogne AOC represents the entry-level wines of Burgundy, offering a taste of the region's winemaking traditions. These wines, primarily made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, cover a broad area from Chablis to Beaujolais. Red wines are light to medium-bodied with red berry flavours and earthy notes, while the whites are crisp and mineral-driven with green apple and citrus. Accessible and versatile, Bourgogne AOC wines are an excellent introduction to Burgundy. Notable producers include Joseph Drouhin, Louis Jadot, and Bouchard Père et Fils.
