Burgundies that are Anything but Entry Level
Burgundies that are Anything but Entry Level
I'm excited today to offer a wide range of "entry" level Burgundy from top producers that punch well above their classification weight
I truly believe that Burgundy from a classification standpoint is fairly user friendly. It all begins with regional wines, Bourgogne Blancs and Rouges. These wines can often be an eye into a producer’s style of winemaking and seen as “baby” versions of their most sought-after wines. From there we move up into village wines; quite simply wines made from vines within a given village and the name of the village appears on the bottle: Meursault, Gevrey-Chambertin, and so on and so forth. From there we jump to Premier Cru (often written as 1er Cru) which are wines from specific vineyards within villages that are deemed a step above their village counterparts. From there the fourth and final classification is Grand Cru, the vineyards that are the best in Burgundy. These are considered to be some of the best vineyards and wines in the world, and commonly come at a hefty price point. All of this to say today we are looking past the prestige and flash of Village, Premier Cru, and Grand Cru and focus solely on regional wines.
All wines discount 10% on a case or mixed case purchase.
Wines are arriving this week and will be available for pick-up and delivery beginning Friday, January 10th
