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.

Faiveley, Mazis Chambertin, Grand Cru 2017

"The palest of the Faiveley family's mouthwatering array of grand cru reds, this is almost indecently scented, sensuous and appealing. Red cherry and raspberry fruit flavours combine playfully on the palate, framed by understated oak and crunchy acidity." Drink 2025-2030, 96/100  Tim Atkin MW, Decanter, 8 Nov 2018

The northernmost Grand Cru in the Côte de Nuits always produces deep and seductive wines. From new barrel. Gorgeous red fruit, ripe and fleshy, layered and zesty, lots of freshness here and the finish is so long. Feather light and densely flavoured at the same time, thought provoking. 2022-2030

 

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.
