| Community Tasting Notes (average 91.3 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 5 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by Collector1855 on 10/17/2018 flawed bottle: During a Burg dinner. Dark yellow. As so often, 3 white Burgs served, one of them already showing signs of premox... (1264 views) | | Tasted by cct on 9/28/2016 & rated 91 points: Ripe and round but still with tension. This is dense but not heavy, honeyed, with orchard fruit and a nutty marzipan slant. Rich and powerful, yet not overbearing. It paired beautifully with a thyme - shallot roast chicken and even carried the roasted brussel sprouts well. I am in general less of a fan of '06 white burg, but this, while no wallflower, is very well balanced, baroque and beautiful. At peak with plenty of time in hand. Premox knock wood.

This started out really slowly off the blocks - so much so that it was far overshadowed by the super-attractive Champs Gain on the same flight. It really started showing its mettle with time in the glass and food on the plate though. Never the most expressive of wines, but very nicely defined and rather classy. Nose started out a little woody, but that blew off quickly to show sweet musk and honey notes, along with sweet white fruit, savoury earth and a fragrant nuttiness. All these came in very subtle proporttions though, nothing showy. Palate was very defined, very clean. It was certainly narrower and leaner than the Champs Gain. On relfecltion though, mid-weight though it was, there was still more than enough concentration in its white fruit and mineral flavours to go around. It put on a nutty tone towards the mid-palate, before moving into a fresh, mouth-puckering finish that showed nice length and minerality. Again, there was a little linger of woodiness which blew off quickly. This really came alive with a scallop dish, with the fruits coming out more. (2858 views) |

Structured, elegant, fresh and fruity will be the main keywords for this new vintage." 2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes: * "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons * "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson * "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes: "We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes: "Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes: "Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes: "The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
