By billn on December 31, 2023 #reports

Viré-Clessé 2022Part 2 – the last day of the year! HERE !!

This is the second of my series focusing on the 2022 vintage and it contains 29 mainly white wine domaines from the Mâconnais – with a few gamays included for good measure. In 7 or 8 days will come the first (of two) red issues and this will include my vintage summary.

66 Domaines published, another 90-or-so are on their way 🙂

Wishing you all the best for your year-end celebrations !!

A new report – 2022 whites !

By billn on December 24, 2023 #reports

2022 MeursaultOnline before my Christmas lunch! HERE !!

It’s the first of my series focusing on the 2022 vintage and it contains 37 mainly white wine domaines from the Côte d’Or. I’ll follow that – before the end of 2023 with the whites of the Mâconnais – another 30-or-so domaines – and in this ‘October’ report I’ll also include an overview of the vintage.

The reds will follow, starting with the Côte de Beaune and following on with the Côte de Nuits – hopefully, all online by the 15th of January – because that’s when I’ll be starting my tour of Chablis 2022!

Wishing you all the best for your year-end celebrations !!

A new report is online…

Chablis July-2023
Chablis July-2023
I’m now starting to to get a grip on the wave (avalanche?!) of new domaine reports – there’s only another 150, which translates to 75-100 hours of work – over the holiday period 😉

See here – with lots of new names visited.

The next big report will be that of 2022 White burgundy – hopefully online before the end of the month.

Wishing you all well!!

There’s a new Burgundy Report…

Nascent Pommard 1er CruOnline now.

Yes, I’m catching up on my backlog of reports – something that’s really needed with about 75 visits now needing my attention – and then your reading 🙂

My focus on this one was still the 2021 vintage – but nearly half of the domaines wanted to show 2022s – as they had no more 2021s.

Shit happens when there’s been frost!

Enjoy!

a new report…

Meursault!Just a heads-up that another 20 domaines have been uploaded to the report section.

It’s a mix of people that I couldn’t fit in at the end of last year, plus others that prefer to show their wines a little later – or in some cases earlier too 🙂

Given the low volume of the 2021 vintage it’s no surprise that one or two domaines were only offering 2022s to taste – so that’s a vintage change about 1-2 months earlier than in most years – but it’s not a surprise!

Enjoy!

New Burgundy Report online…

April 2023It’s taken a while – but now I’ve only 40 more domaines to write up before the start of the harvest 🙂

The new report is online here.

I hope you enjoy it – and also here’s to all your weekends – it’s going to be a hot one where I live!

Cheers!!!

March 2023 Report – now online

By billn on April 30, 2023 #reports

Côte du Py - March 2023The March 2023 Report is now online – 33 domaines including 5 new ones to me.

The domaines are spread over Chablis and Beaujolais plus March marked the return to the Côte d’Or with a trio of domaines that shouldn’t be missed. The coming months will be a mélange of regions, domaines, appellations and climate – but with a little more focus on the Côte d’Or

These reports are still covering the wines of 2021 but a couple of Beaujolais domaines were sold out – so we looked at their 2022s – that’s already 308 published domaine visits since the end of the 2023 harvest – and nobody covers Chablis and Beaujolais in such depth as you will find here…

Enjoy here
