With more than 1,500 years of cultivation, it is hard to argue against the Musique et Vin festival by holding an auction for special bottles donated by winemakers this belief. However, to The Wine Forum, Burgundy is more than just pure, scholarly wine. To us, whom we will be visiting and splitting the proceeds equally between these two worthy causes. Burgundy represents all that we as a group stand for—that is, that fine wine is not a right, but a And what a tour we have lined up! We commence with a Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru tasting privilege. Speaking with the region’s very top winemakers, they resolutely believe they are merely the current custodians of cherished plots, and that their role is to make the best wines possible at the Château du Clos de Vougeot on the final night of the 2014 Musique et Vin Festival. This and pass on the vineyard in the best condition possible to the next generation. Working the soil fabled region hosts 9 Grand Cru vineyards, the most of any in Burgundy.

  • New Stars of Burgundy Tasting
    NEW STARS OF BURGUNDY A TASTING AT ROBERSON WINE THURSDAY JULY 17th 2008 NEW STARS OF BURGUNDY THE DOM AINES Domaine Roulot (Meursault): This is a domaine that has grown rapidly in stature over the past 20 years, although that is not to say that Roulot hasn’t long been considered to be one of Meursault’s very best domaines. Guy Roulot was the driving force behind the creation of the estate and married into the Coche family (of Coche-Dury fame), which brought him plenty of prime terroir.Today the domaine is run by his son Jean-Marc - undoubtedly one of Burgundy’s top white winemakers. Roulot is a domaine that believes in terroir, and they produce 7 cuvées from different vineyards around Meursault. Indeed, Guy was a pioneer in seperately bottling the village appellation climats known as ‘deuxième crus’, and the wine that we will taste tonight is one of the best examples of this – ‘Les Tessons Clos de Mon Plaisir’. Domaine Leflaive (Puligny-Montrachet): Not many beacons of Burgundian winemaking shine brighter than Do- maine Leflaive – this estate is the doyen of Puligny-Montrachet, not to mention a leading pioneer and promoter of biodynamic viticulture. Today’s Leflaive is run by Anne-Claude Leflaive and Pierre Morey, who form a formidable team. Taking the mantle from Anne-Claude’s father Vincent Leflaive was always going to be a difficult task (he was one of Burgundy’s best loved figures), but the wines from this domaine have continued to improve over the last 15 years and they are undoubtedly befitting of an estate that owns vines in all of Puligny’s top climats.

TAGS: Highlights (http://www.decanter.com/tag/highlights/) News Home (http://www.decanter.com/tag/news-home/) California (http://www.decanter.com/wine/wine-regions/california/) wine and balance This article first appeared in Decanter magazine’s January issue. Subscribe here (https://subscription.decanter.com/subscriptions/decanter-subscriptions/). This ‘balance’ thing is going to run and run in California. We’ve had wine writer Jon Bonné and his book on The New California. And we’ve had sommelier Rajat Parr and Co with their ‘In Pursuit of Balance’ campaign, which was so successful it has now disbanded after its final tasting in November in San Francisco. Why this success? Because it touched a raw nerve. And these balance advocates weren’t the first ones either. Cathy Corison has been practising balance at her Napa winery for nearly 30 years. Jim Clendenen at Au Bon Climat has been talking this language since the 1980s and is a bit miffed that the new flag-wavers are claiming the balance idea is all theirs, when he’s been banging the drum for 35 years.

  • 2016 Vintage Release
    2016 VINTAGE RELEASE “If one shall sadly remember 2016 as a vintage of frost and low yields, we appreciate its results as intense, pure and long living wines.” THIBAULT JACQUET January 2018 INTRODUCTION Bonneau du Martray changed hands in January 2017, for only the fourth time in over twelve centuries... A majority stake in the domaine was purchased by American vineyard proprietor and businessman E. Stanley Kroenke. The 2016 vintage therefore marks the end of the highly successful tenure of Jean- Charles le Bault de la Morinière and the beginning of an exciting new era. Jean-Charles took over from his father Jean and 4 managed the domaine from 1994 to 2017. He wisely 5 replanted several plots of Pinot Noir (Corton Grand Cru) to Chardonnay (Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru), whilst bringing about a marked increase in the quality of the domaine’s red wine. Bonneau du Martray’s new manager, who has barely had a chance to get his feet under his desk, is Thibault Jacquet, previously of Laurent-Perrier in Asia. Thibaut is young, dynamic and imbued with the spirit of this great domaine. The Jacquet family are friends of the le Bault de la Morinières, making for an auspicious beginning and meaning that the handover has been achieved smoothly... no mean feat at a domaine with this weight of history. Armand de Maigret will assist Thibault Jacquet, supervising the domaine, alongside the other vineyard holdings of Stan Kroenke. These include the Californian estates Screaming Eagle, Jonata and The Hilt. Look out of your car’s right hand window and you Beaune in 1443.
