The more recent direct sales to individuals and organizations at the Hospices de Beaune wine auctions, coupled with the requirement that any wine purchased by the barrel be aged (in French, élevé) and bottled by one of the local négociant companies, means that it is likely that each portion of auction lots sold will receive several different cellar treatments, resulting in each one being essentially a different wine. Experience suggests that it is unrealistic to expect the style and quality of these wines to be identical. Because this is so, it is suggested that each bottling be treated as a different wine for CT purposes, and that the 'Eleveur' be disclosed. jht
HOSPICES DE BEAUNE
The Hospices de Beaune was founded in 1443 by Nicolas Rolin as a hospital and refuge for the poor and needy. From 1471 onwards, vast tracts of vineyard land have been donated and bequeathed by grateful families and generous benefactors to the Hospices de Beaune. Much of the Hospices 61 hectares of vineyard land dotted throughout the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune, is classified Premier Cru and Grand Cru including sites in Clos de la Roche, Mazis-Chambertin and Corton. Since 1859, the wines made from the Hospices vineyard holdings have been sold in a charity auction held on the third Sunday of November every year. The entire proceeds of the auction go to the charitable and religious works of the old hospices and various health-care institutions in the region. Grapes harvested from the Hospice’s vines are made into 45 distinct cuvees (32 red and 13 white). These are sold 'en Primeur', just weeks after vintage and are shipped to the négociant-éleveur before the 15th of January of the following year. The wines are then matured, bottled and eventually distributed to the buyer, whose name typically appears on the label alongside that of the négociant-éleveur.Chardonnay The Chardonnay GrapeFrance Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

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
