From the 2020 vintage Domaine Buisson-Charles will produce around 300 bottles of this mythical grand cru. After La Chapelle, it is the estate's second foray into the Côte de Nuits, even if it remains in more than modest quantities. When the wine is perfectly vinified, it releases from its youthful aromas of liquorice stick which clearly distinguishes it and which sometimes makes certain tasters think that it could lack complexity compared to its neighbour Clos de Bèze, which would be more immediately elegant. and aromatic. Let's take this with caution and circumspection because Chambertin only asserts its obvious superiority over the long term.

Catherine Buisson and Patrick Essa are winegrowers in Meursault, in Côte-d'Or. The couple run the Buisson-Charles estate, an eight-hectare estate, located in a short journey around Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, the golden triangle of the great white wines of the Côte de Beaune. The wines are organic and the vines plowed on horseback without using any weed killer. A small Burgundian-style estate that signs “haute couture” cuvées from plots located on exceptional terroirs.

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.
