What to Expect

While Burgundy is renowned as the home of Pinot Noir, it is also the source for the ubiquitous Chardonnay grape. In these gently rolling hills Chardonnay achieves some of its most profound expressions. Appellations such as Meursault, Montrachet, and Corton Charlemagne proudly take their place among the most sought-after in all the world of wine. With a richness and complexity few wines can match, Chardonnay from Burgundy adds classic hints of flinty and chalky soil with nuances tones of nuts, cinnamon, honey and butter to the rich, sometimes unctuous but rarely heavy, ripe orchard fruits that the grapes are capable of providing. White Burgundy can improve in the bottle for decades and is arguably the most age-worthy dry white wine in the world.

Reviews

Rich golden colour, with a fairly subtle nose of camomile, mint and citrus -- smells like a summer meadow! Initially tropical in the mouth, with melon-ish notes, red apple, citrus, and then some herbal hints -- sage and grass. Full bodied, with excellent length and perfectly integrated acidity, this is a little joy of a wine from Burgundy's perfect 2005 vintage. Worth its slightly steep price, this would stun with roast chicken or scallops.
