France
The vast and diverse wine regions of France, each with its own unique terroirs, grape varieties, and winemaking techniques, are a treasure trove.
In Bordeaux, the birthplace of some of the world's most iconic wines, esteemed vineyards such as Château Lafite Rothschild, Château Margaux, Château Latour, and Château Haut-Brion produce exceptional red wines, showcasing the art of blending Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. The region is also renowned for its exquisite white wines, with vineyards like Château d'Yquem and Domaine de Chevalier producing legendary sweet wines.
Moving to Burgundy, the vineyards of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, and Domaine Armand Rousseau capture the essence of the region's revered terroir, crafting exquisite red wines from the Pinot Noir grape. Meanwhile, Domaine Leflaive and Domaine Coche-Dury are celebrated for their world-class white wines, predominantly made from Chardonnay.
The Champagne region, known for its sparkling wines, boasts illustrious houses such as Krug, Dom Pérignon, and Moët & Chandon, as well as grower-producers like Pierre Péters and Jacques Selosse. These vineyards create exceptional sparkling wines using the traditional method, offering a symphony of delicate bubbles, elegant flavors, and vibrant acidity.
In the Rhône Valley, iconic vineyards like Chapoutier, E. Guigal, and Château de Beaucastel produce remarkable red wines in the northern appellations of Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie, and Cornas, showcasing the elegance and power of Syrah. Further south, Châteauneuf-du-Pape is celebrated for its rich and full-bodied red blends, with Château Rayas and Clos des Papes leading the way.
In Alsace, vineyards such as Domaine Zind-Humbrecht and omaine Trimbach craft exquisite white wines, including Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Gris, expressing the region's unique terroir and varietal character.
These are just a few highlights among the diverse array of wines that France offers. From the Loire Valley's crisp whites and elegant reds to the Languedoc-Roussillon's bold and robust wines, each region presents its own vinous treasures.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96)100% whole bunch vinification, 50% new wood. Bright crimson purple. The nose takes some teasing out, but is not initially among the most flamboyant. Whole bunch pepper is apparent and a weight of dark fruit. Huge volume on the palate, a brooding dark raspberry with more lifted red cherries, the whole bunches quite evident but also well integrated, a refreshing mineral acidity and the sumptuous hedonistic style which is typical of Clos St-Denis dominating the aftertaste. Certainly very long indeed. Would like to see this in ten years time. Tasted: December 2021 |

The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, a dash of white pepper, cohesive with another quite elegant, brown spice and cracked black pepper finish. Very fine. |

Burghound (94)A cool, airy and even spicier nose is composed by ultra-pure red berries and exotic jasmine tea. There is a lovely energy suffusing the refined and detailed medium-bodied flavors that terminate in a beautifully long if decidedly serious, compact and moderately austere finale that also reflects a trace of warmth. This needs to develop better depth but that shouldn't be an issue provided one is sufficiently patient. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2017 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru contains 100% whole bunch fruit, matured in one new barrel and one used. This has a more expressive bouquet than the Clos de la Roche, featuring ample ripe red currant, blueberry and raspberry preserve aromas tinged with pressed flowers. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry and offers a little more penetration and tension than the Clos de la Roche. Almost sorbet-fresh on the vibrant finish. Wonderful. |

Vinous (92-94)(30% vendange entier): Medium red. Captivating aromas of strawberry, leather, tobacco and cinnamon lifted by a note of bergamot; conveys an impression of noble site-driven rusticity. Silky on entry, then penetrating and imploded in the middle, conveying excellent definition and lift to its firm-edged flavors of strawberry and crushed stone. I never would have picked this energetic, tightly wound wine as a 2015. |

Subtle, sweet, wild and long but with excellent freshness. ‘Probably the sort of wine that was drunk 200 years ago,’ Ponsot claims. |
