News — 2020 Red Burgundy

Mugneret-Gibourg 2007-2022

These are easy wines to become obsessed with. Across the range, the wines are texturally beguiling, transparent, and supremely elegant. 

Bachelet 2012-2022

Bachelet is special - a tiny 4ha estate with an outsized reputation.

Still, there are bottles that I feel compelled to highlight. Chevillon's 2008 NSG 1er Cru Les Vaucrains is a great example of the wine.
