Jean-Luc & Eric Burguet - Gevrey-Chambertin Mes Favorites Vieilles Vignes 2019

Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

When Alain Burguet officiallly retired in 2011, the winery was turned over to the able hands of his 3 sons, Bachelet-trained Jean-Luc and Gouges-mentored Eric and Alain. They farm biodynamically and their de-stemmed fruit is fermented with indigenous yeasts. The wines are bottled without filtration or fining. The vines for Mes Favorites are 75-100 years old.

 The domaine’s old vine bottling of Mes Favorites is also a superb example of the 2019 vintage. The wine shows some lovely red fruity shadings in the bouquet, offering up scents of red and black cherries, smoked meats, a beautiful base of dark soil tones, cloves, roses, cedar and plenty of upper register smokiness. On the palate the wine is deep, plush and full-bodied, with a superb core of fruit, ripe, seamless tannins, fine focus and grip and a long, complex and classy finish. The 2019 Mes Favorites will want a few years in the cellar to soften up its backend tannins, but should drink very nicely not too far down the road.
