It was not until I started to put together the presentation for last night's tasting and jumped into my folders that I realised I've been presenting our Pinot Noir club at Victoria Park for 10 years. A thought that quickly escaped my mind, as it only served to make me feel older than I'm sure I am. A great night last night, exploring the villages of Burgundy. Well that's what the night set out to do, though what was uncovered was much more than that. The wines showed us the different ageing capacity of Village, 1er Cru and Grand Cru wines, the Domaine Lamarche Grand Cru looking super young in comparison to other wines in the line-up. The importance of Producer, it's really the key to buying Burgundy, find a producer you like, stick with them, explore the villages and vintages, all whilst knowing the style of the winemaking is one you enjoy. There was a fair few surprises in the line-up, making it clear that purchasing Burgundy with price as a guide won't be of any assistance. So, to the wines and how they looked, that's all online on About Wine
