A Splendid Cellar, Part 2

Burghound

BH 90

"The notably ripe, dense and serious aromas of plum, earth, sauvage and underbrush scents is trimmed in just enough wood to remark upon. There is outstanding concentration to the impressively rich, broad-shouldered and intense medium-bodied flavors that deliver excellent depth and length for a villages level wine. While this certainly could be drunk and enjoyed now as there is plenty of velvety character to the mouth feel, I would suggest holding the wine for another 2 to 4 years first."

Robert Parker

RP 92

"Bachelet’s 2005 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes – from 60- to 70-year-old vines both below the route nationale and north of Gevrey in Brochon – offers lovely black fruit aromas with hints of anise and mint. A truly palate-staining intensity of vividly-fresh, tart but ripe black cherry and blackberry is underlain by firm, fine tannins (not precluding an emerging silkiness of texture) and augmented by bitter-herbal and stony notes. Although palpably dense and abundantly tannic, this outstanding village wine still comes off as juicy, sleek, invigorating and refined. Put it away for at least 5-7 years."

Focus On: Burgundy

Burgundy has long been the world's most famous wine region. But, underneath all the prestige, this region can be hard to get to know.

While Burgundy offers many great trophies from top producers in well-known villages like Vosne Romanee and Puligny Montrachet, it also offers excellent values to anyone willing to explore beyond the famous names. Our collection– one of the largest in the U.S. – has plenty of both!

From the very basics of Burgundy's regions and wines to the specific terroirs of individual single vineyards--
everything you need to know about Bourgogne is just a click away!
