2022 Bourgogne Rouge
Domaine Larue
From the commune of Chassagne-Montrachet, Larue’s Bourgogne rouge is more succulent and concentrated than usual in 2022—all about notes of dark fruit and spice.

France | Burgundy
Incredible elegance for Pruliers, power and finesse in spades.

2021 Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge 1er Cru “La Boudriotte”

Larue’s home turf is Saint-Aubin, but with this Chassagne-Montrachet, the family shows how well it can steward neighboring terroirs too.

Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils

Treated with the same care as the domaine’s premiers crus, and will certainly age like one.

One of Burgundy’s established masters.

2023 Chablis “Hommage”

It smells just like the ocean, with a sea-mist freshness to more than satisfy that itch in the back of your throat.

2004 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru “Les Cherbaudes”
Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils

With vibrant fruit and a silky finish, it’s sure to continue aging gracefully, and express vintage soul when the cork is eventually pulled.

From the first taste in barrel, I immediately understood what Antoine wanted to accomplish stylistically, and the results were love at first taste.

Lots of herbs and lemon curd precede its dry, racy finish. It’s a mouthwatering, drink-me-now white Burgundy.

Stylistically, Les Clous is in between La Fortune and La Digoine, characterized by medium weight with more red fruits, smooth but present tannins, and distinctive polish.

About The Producer
Domaine Larue
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.

When buying red Burgundy, I think we should remember:
1. Big wines do not age better than light wine.
2. A so-called great vintage at the outset does not guarantee a great vintage for the duration.
3. A so-called off vintage at the outset does not mean the wines do not have a brilliant future ahead of them.
4. Red Burgundy should not taste like Guigal Côte-Rôtie, even if most wine writers wish it would.
5. Don’t follow leaders; watch yer parking meters.
