Burgundy
When it comes to the world of fine wines, Burgundy stands tall as one of the most revered and sought-after regions. Renowned for its exceptional terroir and commitment to quality, Burgundy has long captivated enthusiasts with its exquisite and highly prized wines. Today, let us delve into the realm of the best and most expensive wines that Burgundy has to offer, a realm where true wine aficionados can indulge in the pinnacle of winemaking excellence.
At the heart of Burgundy's prestige lie its renowned vineyards, which have garnered global acclaim for their exceptional wines. The names that resonate in the world of Burgundy are Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, Domaine Armand Rousseau, and Domaine Georges Roumier. These vineyards have become synonymous with greatness, crafting wines that define elegance, complexity, and longevity.
Burgundy's most esteemed wines are crafted from two noble grape varieties: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The region's red wines, made predominantly from Pinot Noir, display a finesse and purity of fruit that are unmatched. Vineyards such as Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, and Richebourg produce red wines that command astronomical prices due to their exceptional quality and limited production.
For white wine enthusiasts, Burgundy's Chardonnay-based wines are a true revelation. Vineyards like Montrachet, Corton-Charlemagne, and Meursault showcase the full potential of this noble grape, producing wines of unparalleled richness, depth, and complexity. These whites epitomize the artistry of winemaking, with each sip revealing layers of flavors and a harmonious balance between fruit, minerality, and oak.
In the world of fine wines, Burgundy stands as an epitome of elegance, complexity, and refined craftsmanship. Its best and most expensive wines are a testament to the region's unwavering commitment to excellence, terroir-driven winemaking, and the artistry of the winemakers.

Vinous (91-93)The 2020 Morey-Saint-Denis Monts Luisants Blanc 1er Cru was picked around midway through the harvest. It has a tightly-coiled bouquet that takes time to open, touches dew-speckled Granny Smiths and pressed white flowers. The palate is fresh and vibrant with fine acidity, very impressive weight with a tangy, tangerine-tinged finish. This might well be my pick from Dujac’s whites this year. Excellent. |

Wine Advocate (89-91+)The 2019 Morey-Saint-Denis Village is showing nicely, wafting from the glass with aromas of plums, orange rind, warm spices, peonies and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, deep and elegantly muscular, with powdery tannins and a vibrant core of fruit, this is very promising. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)Glowing purple. There is a fine weight of fruit, building steadily, lifting deep cherry notes, with an excellent texture, serge not silk, but it provides a fine backbone. I can see this ageing into a classic Dujac village Morey, always one of Burgundy’s great village wines. Drink from 2030-2037. Tasted: November 2023. |

Wine Advocate (89-91)The 2010 Morey St. Denis is a touch firmer than the Gevrey, and also shows darker tonality in its red fruit. Dried flowers, mint and licorice are layered into the energetic finish. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2020. |

Vinous (89)Medium red. Aromas of raspberry and underbrush are complicated by a musky carnal quality and a note of mocha. Offers lovely sweetness and breadth for a 2014 village wine, with brown spices dominating the middle palate. Has the stuffing to buffer its tannins, finishing with very good spicy length. |

Vinous (86-88)The 2019 Morey-Saint-Denis Village was very tight on the nose with brambly black fruit and loamy aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with a fresher feel than the Gevrey, slightly better acidity and though not overly complex, it conveys a sense of joie-de-vivre on the finish. |

Vinous (87-89)The 2020 Morey-Saint-Denis Village comes from several parcels. For me, this works better on the nos than the Gevrey-Chambertin, more fruité and cohesion, a little more vigour. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, quite saline with a gentle grip on the finish. Recommended. |

Vinous (88-90)The 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Village offers slightly darker fruit than the Gevrey-Chambertin, straightforward but clean. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chalky tannins. I appreciate the citrus undertow of this Morey, focused with a tensile, almost steely finish. Fine. |

Vinous (89-91)Bright medium red. Inviting aromas of red raspberry, smoky minerals and spices. At once velvety and vibrant, offering lovely floral lift and an intriguing carnal quality to its flavors of raspberry, red licorice and spices. Finishes with dusty tannins and lingering notes of strawberry and spices. Excellent potential here. Jeremy Seysses vinified with a significant percentage of whole clusters across the board in 2015 and aged his nvgociant wines in about 25% new oak. (The Morey-Saint-Denis was in an awkward, slightly dry stage in November.) |

Burghound (87-89)An exceptionally fresh and very pretty nose offers up notes of both red and blue pinot fruit, lavender and a trace of spice nuances. The supple, lacy and seductively textured middle weight flavors flash a touch of minerality before culminating in a dusty finish where a hint of bitter pit fruit character surfaces. I like the balance and this should drink well early but age over the mid-term too. |

Vinous (87-89)The 2019 Chambolle-Musigny Village is tightly wound on the nose with black cherries, strawberry and touches of wild hawthorn and heather. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins. This needs a little time to absorb the new oak, but that will be assimilated with time and I appreciate its candied, slightly tart finish. Enjoy this over the next 7-10 years. |

Vinous (87-89)The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a pleasant airiness on the nose - fragrant red fruit laced with wilted rose petals, darker fruit emerging with time. The palate is well balanced, fine grip, quite granular in texture with a sappy finish. |
