Cask sample. Quite a blue tinge to the crimson here. Real Chambolle character despite the appellation! That characteristic hint of chestnuts I find so often on Barthod wines. Open weave and yet solid undertow. Difficult to go wrong with this wine and no hurry to drink it. She's done it again in 2020. (JR)

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.
