Burghound 92 points drink 2013+ ♥Outstanding. "Ultra pure red pinot fruit, evident minerality, floral notes, layered, sweet, deep, concentrated middle weight flavors brimming with dry extract. Serious punch, vibrancy, strikingly long finish. Balanced, harmonious effort with all the structural elements in perfect proportion. Terrific."

"A high-toned and ultra pure red pinot fruit nose with evident minerality and floral notes merges seamlessly into layered, sweet, deep and concentrated middle weight flavors brimming with dry extract and serious punch and vibrancy on the strikingly long finish. This is a balanced and harmonious effort with all the structural elements in perfect proportion. Terrific."

"The 2006 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St.-Jacques 1er Cru from Jean-Marie Fourrier is similar to the bottle tasted two years earlier. It has a lovely, quite earthy, rose petal scented bouquet, that tertiary aspect becoming more pronounced with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine definition, still stylish and quite sumptuous for a 2006, though it does not quite deliver the complexity of the very finest vintages from Jean-Marie Fourrier, just tailing off a tad towards the finish. Tasted at the Gevrey-Chambertin lunch at China Tang in Hong Kong." -Neal Martin

RP 91

"The 2006 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St Jacques has a gorgeous, heart-warming bouquet of cranberry leaf, wilted rose petals and subtle tertiary scents that are very delineated and focused. The pedigree of the vineyard comes through here. The palate is medium-bodied with a vibrant, vivacious entry, smooth in texture, quite succulent for a Clos Saint-Jacques with candied orange peel on the youthful and stylish finish. While it is not the greatest wine that Jean-Marie has ever overseen, this 2006 is doling out so much drinking pleasure, even if I would be inclined to afford it another couple of years in bottle. Tasted June 2016." -Neal Martin

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!
