A Collection of My Favorite White Burgundies
Burgundy is the region where the Chardonnay grape earned its wings as one of the all time great white wine grapes.
It is one of my favorite sources for white wine, and I am a relentless promoter of its wines. One of my employees when he first experienced the wines at an after work tasting simply uttered the words “Burgundy is the light”. Amen brother!
The combination of exceptional terroir – limestone, marls and sand – a moderate climate, and centuries of winemaking tradition all play a role. It is also a very diverse region, with sparkling cremant de bourgogne, crisp, mineral chablis, complex and layered whites from Puligny, Corton, Meursault and Chassagne, and tons of value priced Macon wine, Côte Chalonnaise wines and Bourgognes Blanc. Prices for these terrific expressions of the Chardonnay grape range from everyday affordable to outrageously expensive. Here are a handful of our current favorites.
Pretty soon we will be doing this in person – keep an eye open for our opening dates next month!!
