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.

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 (93)The 2018 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru has a wonderful bouquet with mineral-driven Granny Smith apple aromas and a touch of lemon rind. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. Fresh and focused, the oak is cleverly interwoven with a persistent finish. This is excellent, a classy Folatières that should age well in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 white tasting. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (95)The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru has a very classy bouquet with beautifully integrated oak, real intensity and impressive delineation. The palate is fresh and concentrated. Wonderful depth and almost racy acidity with gorgeous yellow plum and spicy notes towards the persistent and harmonious finish. Superb. Sophisticated.

Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru is showing a veneer of new oak on the nose that currently covers the terroir and fruit expression. The palate is effervescent on entry, very lemony with a keen line of acidity, though the new oak is imperious and oppresses the finish, rendering this rather generic in style and below the bottle tasted a couple of years back. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (88-91)A blend from all the plots of Puligny except Charmes and Trézin. A pretty bouquet with some fresh citrus blossom on the nose, pure white fruit on the palate, which is on the broader side but with enough concentration to kick on nicely to a tasty finish. Very correct and quite accessible. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted Oct 2024. |

Vinous (91)The 2020 Mâcon La Roche Vineuse Vieilles Vignes, from 50 to 60-year old vines, was the first cuvée to be bottled this year. The nose has superior definition to the regular cuvée with green apple and granite. The palate is well balanced, very elegant with hints of ginger and blackberry leaf on the slightly honeyed finish. Lovely. |
