Fourrey, Chablis 1er Cru, Mont de Milieu, 2022 Burgundy EP (Case of 12 bottles)

Mont de Milieu is a hillside vineyard facing south and south-east, and as such the vines are well-exposed. We used to find this wine steely in youth and recommended keeping it for a few years but recent vintages have been silkier. Riper aromas... Read More

The Burgundy Pyramid

Making sense of the complexity of the complexity of Burgundy isn’t easy.

Though Burgundy only comprises 5% of France’s vineyard area, it holds 100 different Appellations, 25% of the entire French total.  There are no less than 5,000 growers, 85% of whom own less than 10 hectares, and four fifths of them make wine.

To make matters...

Chardonnay

Chardonnay is one of the most-widely planted varieties in the world.

Arguably not the most characterful grape, hence its common ageing in oak, yet at its pinnacle in Burgundy it produces some of the greatest (and certainly most expensive) white wines in the world. Look out for unoaked Chardonnay, it can make a pleasant change, and usually goes down very well with all those people who...

Fourrey, Chablis 1er Cru, Mont de Milieu, 2022 Burgundy EP (Case of 12 bottles)

Mont de Milieu is a hillside vineyard facing south and south-east, and as such the vines are well-exposed. We used to find this wine steely in youth and recommended keeping it for a few years but recent vintages have been silkier. Riper aromas than the above – hint of tangerine, alongside a marine note of samphire. Grapefruit core, mid weight. Very correct. Late 2024-2028

"The domaine has 1 ha within Mont de Milieu. Bottled July 2023. Generous and weighty on the palate, cut with plenty of vibrant lemon acidity. Mineral notes on the aftertaste. Long and very precise – a classy premier cru 2025-2032", 16.5/20 Andy Howard MW,  www.jancisrobinson.com, 19th January 2024

Please note this wine is not available for immediate delivery and excludes duty & VAT, (payabale on delivery) We will contact you when the wine arrives in the UK, most likely in the autumn.

Great choice of good-value wines in the January sales. The website is really easy to use to make up an order. Delivery, as is often the case, was within 24 hours and, as usual, was well-packed.
