I was sent this wine in the post from Burgundy Wines (I think), as a result of not being able to honour an invitation to the 24th Annual Chablis Contest in London. In a remarkable coincidence, it happened to be the wine of a producer that I had rece (read full article)
This wine has me interested in Chablis again. I tasted it at a tasting party we had with some friends, and one of the group had brought it back from France. The people who brought it kindly offered to buy some more if anyone was interested, so I to (read full article)
Sainsbury's has come up with the deal of the year. This wine normally goes for about £25, and it's on for half-price. That's not inflated either - this is proper wine.Everything adds up here, almost. Louis Jadot is a good name. 2007 was a good vi (read full article)
This is a terrible wine. I think I mistook it for this. How I did that I'm not sure.It's almost the colour of a rose (not really unusual for a Pinot Noir), but it's also thin, acidic, and just generally grim. Really disappointing. I don't remember (read full article)

This was supposed to be a bit of a splash-out wine for me. At £12.99 it's not something I would normally buy, except for a special occasion. Embarrassingly, when I was looking at this wine in the shop I didn't know where in Burgundy the appellatio (read full article)
I have to admit that Burgundy reds are somewhat of a gaping hole in my wine experience... please don't shoot me. Perhaps its that I just got too hooked on Bordeaux wines and neglected this region. Anyway, I approached this wine with an open and unbia (read full article)
I picked this red Burgundy up in supermarket in Brussels a few weeks ago. The village of Mercurey is in the southern part of Burgundy known as the Côte Chalonnaise. Two villages in particular here, Mercurey and Givry, are sources of good quality a (read full article)
I needed a Chardonnay for Spaghetti Carbonara so I just decided to try this, a generic white Burgundy that was 25% off at Waitrose.A pretty decent wine, although I wasn't bowled over by its character. A bit of white stone fruit with good acidity, it (read full article)
