Some special moments to enjoy and to share !

Our sommeliers enjoyed tastings in the cellars with producers who love to talk about what it means to be a winegrower. They explored the different vintages, each one always totally unique. They explored landscapes which, in the blink of an eye, bring the notion of the Climats to life. And they feasted their eyes on the vines of Pernand-Vergelesses from the spectacular viewpoint on the cliff above the plot of Sous Frétille. But it was the conviviality of the Bourgogne region that stayed in their minds and in their hearts, because it sums up what the region’s wines are all about: Emotion, pleasure, and sharing.

We have tried to capture that emotion and the pleasure of discovering and sharing those appellations that are little known on the American market through interviews with the sommeliers that we have edited into short video clips. They reveal some moments that take us beyond the world of wine, yet which bring us closer to the Bourgogne region, along with suggestions for appellations that might tempt you, too.

To watch and share to your heart’s content ! !
