The most enigmatic wine in the range is the 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses, a bottling that marries the floral and the mineral to compelling effect. Bursting with aromas of clear honey, citrus blossom, white currants and orange zest, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with lively acids and a charming, enveloping profile, concluding with an intensely saline finish.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.

The grapes must be harvested by hand and the wine must be aged for at least 18 months in oak barrels before it can be released for sale. The result is a wine that is elegant, complex, and full of character.

It is a wine that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of foods, including seafood, poultry, and cheese.
