The expression of the terroir
« I plunge my nose into the glass and suddenly, life stops around me. We are on another planet, what invades my nose is of the most absolute elegance, there is finesse, purity, delicately integrated tertiary aromas. And then the wilted rose. This subtle note that puts me on the path to the appellation. I take a sip of the wine, and again, unknown sensations surge. The tannins are elegant, there is still a little acidity, the finish is balanced, salivating and long, long, long. It is a refined wine, far from a demonstration of power. The material is so light, and so concentrated at the same time that it’s magical »
Among the 1247 that make up Bourgogne wine region, there are only 33 “climats” classified at the highest level of the hierarchy of Burgundy wine appellations. Their production is only around 1% of the vineyard area. If we compare these figures to wine production worldwide, the expression “a drop in the ocean” becomes very mean-ingful, as the entire Burgundy region accounts for only 0.6% of the world’s wine production.

THEMATIC
PRODUCER
With over 4,000 producers in Burgundy, it can be challenging to grasp the full depth of this extraordinary wine region.
Discover the unique know-how of a single winegrower through a curated selection of appellations and diverse terroirs from their own estate.
An immersive journey into their universe, revealing how soil, climate, and craftsmanship come together to shape the identity of each cuvée.
A rare opportunity to experience the intimate connection between a producer and the land that defines their wines.
APPELLATION
Burgundy is home to over 1,200 named “climats”, a unique patchwork of precisely defined vineyard plots, each with its own history, soil, and identity.
Through this tasting, explore a selection of wines from the same appellation, the same terroir, sometimes even the same parcel, to uncover the subtle differences that make each wine truly singular.
This is the essence of Burgundy: a region where the expression of place reigns supreme, and where the producers’ global reputation is built on their ability to reveal the soul of each plot through their wines.
VINTAGE
Great Burgundy wines reveal different expressions as they age. In their youth, they seduce with vibrant energy, generous fruit and striking power, a pure and immediate reflection of their terroir and vintage.
As the years pass, these same wines evolve with grace. Their structure softens, their aromas become more complex and refined, and their tannins take on a silky, velvety texture, bringing depth, balance and elegance to every sip.
This tasting offers a rare opportunity to follow the evolution of a wine over time, to understand its ageing potential and to appreciate the beauty of its transformation from youthful intensity to mature finesse.
