Wine Blast – Burgundy in 2021
Delighted to join the MW team of Susie and Peter to discuss the joys of Burgundy, just the thing to warm us up a cold January day.
“To kick off 2021, we dive right into the fascinating, frustrating, compelling wine world that is Burgundy. Iconic – certainly. Over-priced? Plausibly. At great risk from climate change? Undoubtedly. We explore these issues and more across two special episodes – and in this first part we quiz our fellow Master of Wine and renowned Burgundy expert, Jasper Morris, as well as buyer Rebecca Palmer from Corney & Barrow, agents for Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (among other things). We give our summary on the 2019 vintage, which is currently going on sale, explore how to find good value, the new generation, alternatives to Burgundy and biodynamics, all in the time in takes to sink a fine bottle of Passetoutgrains. Or Chambertin.” – Wine Blast with Susie & Peter: Burgundy in 2021 Part 1
