vine

The vines of the Burgundy region are world renowned, producing the finest crops, year after year. The climate and conditions are perfect, but success is no accident of nature...

How could anyone even contemplate buying wine and not think of Burgundy, one of the world’s most historic and magnificent wine regions. It’s fabled pinot noir and chardonnay produce wines of precision, elegance and bring joy to the human senses, seldom seen from other regions. This is why so many people continue to holiday there and desperately try to arrange tastings with some of the most elusive winemakers in the world, whose answer is usually a polite No.

That answer is driven by a lack of wine and time. Everybody wants to taste at the best addresses. There is another side too in Burgundy. That’s to spot a rising star. There are so many young winemakers who are enthusiastic and determined to show what they can do. How wonderful it is, to enter a Domaine and be blown away by youth that wakes up early, goes to bed late, enjoys the land, friendships, works by the lunar calendar and wants to produce wine that brings joy to people.
