Mâcon-Vinzelles Le Clos de Grand-Père 2013
Residual fermentation aromas mask the fruit though there is fine intensity and a lovely sense of freshness to the energetic middle weight flavors that possess a clean, dry and focused finish. This is an extremely pretty effort that boxes well above its weight.

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.
