Everyday Burgundies of the 2008 Vintage
or
Where the Smart Money Goes!
|
The vineyards of Maranges, perhaps the most
underappreciated of all Burgundy
|
|
If I wrote to tell clients that I had found the most
fabulous New Zealand Pinot Noir for minimal outlay, a
wine that would develop beautifully in the cellar
over five years or so and make sumptuous drinking
when mature, I suspect that I would have my hand, if
not bitten off, then fairly well nibbled. Yet
sometimes I wonder whether a similar claim about a
burgundy would elicit nothing like that eagerness.
|
|
Are people nervous of great value burgundy and if so,
why? These are wines that can be bought in
multiple-case quantities, laid down for a few years
and then consumed without reservation, with countless
friends who will be forever grateful of your
generosity, not knowing that the fabulous burgundy
you poured in such a never-ending cataract had, in
fact, cost diddly-squat.
|
|
I think that I am more proud of these wines than the
1er and Grands Crus that will appear soon on other
Bowes Wine offerings. They take more finding and the
worthwhile discoveries give a greater sense of
reward.
