from the Domaine founders of Charles Giraud and Maxime Latour – the fruit derives from 5 separate lieux-dits). Notes of matchstick and spice add breadth to the slightly riper aromas of acacia blossom and white orchard fruit.

About Burghound.com

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.
