2018 Montagny 1er Cru
Jean-Marc VincentTo taste an organically made, terroir-driven bottling of Montagny is a rare treat, since most of its production is sold off in bulk to the cave cooperative. But Jean-Marc Vincent, who built his domaine from the ground up, seeks potential in the most humble appellations, which he then transforms into key players. A favorite of Kermit’s, his Montagny is elegant, racy, and vibrant, the result of Jean-Marc’s thoughtfulness, passion, and hard work. If you are looking for a white Burgundy bargain, this is hard to beat.

2019 Vin de France “Grenache Noir”
France | Burgundy
The result is a red with a light touch and bright aromatics, yet still with a hint of southern French sun. Best chilled.

France | Burgundy
Evoking fresh orchard fruit, white flowers, and chalk, Les Margotés is remarkably pure and will continue to age beautifully over 10-15 years.

France | Burgundy
Aligoté may actually be an even more precise conduit for Burgundian terroir than Chardonnay.
2020 Givry Rouge 1er Cru “Clos du Cras Long”
France | Burgundy
Power and finesse, silken fruit and muscular tannin, and a noticeable, stony, goût de terroir.
2021 Fixin
France | Burgundy
Solid yet affordable cru burgundy with the structure, concentration, and complexity similar to Gevrey-Chambertin’s wine, as well as the bright fruit and accessibility of its other neighbor, Marsannay.

France | Burgundy
Full of robust fruit, earthy notes, and a little spice, the village-level Maranges is an ideal introduction to the appellation.

Domaine Jean-Marc Vincent
About The Region
Burgundy
In eastern central France, Burgundy is nestled between the wine regions of Champagne to the north, the Jura to the east, the Loire to the west, and the Rhône to the south. This is the terroir par excellence for producing world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
The southeast-facing hillside between Dijon in the north and Maranges in the south is known as the Côte d’Or or “golden slope.” The Côte d’Or comprises two main sections, both composed of limestone and clay soils: the Côte de Nuits in the northern sector, and the Côte de Beaune in the south. Both areas produce magnificent whites and reds, although the Côte de Beaune produces more white wine and the Côte de Nuits more red.
Chablis is Burgundy’s northern outpost, known for its flinty and age-worthy Chardonnays planted in Kimmeridgian limestone on an ancient seabed. Vézelay is a smaller area south of Chablis with similar qualities, although the limestone there is not Kimmeridgian.
To the south of the Côte de Beaune, the Côte Chalonnaise extends from Chagny on its northern end, down past Chalon-sur-Saône and encompasses the appellations of Bouzeron in the north, followed by Rully, Mercurey, Givry, and Montagny.
Directly south of the Chalonnaise begins the Côte Mâconnais, which extends south past Mâcon to the hamlets of Fuissé, Vinzelles, Chaintré, and Saint-Véran. The Mâconnais is prime Chardonnay country and contains an incredible diversity of soils.
