Mâcon-Cruzille 2016
An attractively fresh nose combines notes of pear, apple, citrus and a floral whiff. I like both the energy and intensity of the lightly stony middle weight flavors that exude a refreshing salinity on the clean and dry finish. This agreeably crisp effort should drink well young.

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
