Item # 43760 750mL

A delightful yet increasingly rare appellation that is a snapshot into this incredible domain which started in 1981 - modern in terms of Burgundy. Always a blend that's based on two-thirds of Gamay and then Pinot Noir. The Gamay comes from Gilley-les-Citeaux, the Pinot from Chambolle-Musigny. Pair this with duck confit and potato gratin.

Staff Pick Notes

This Passetoutgrain is two-thirds Gamay and one-third Pinot Noir, yet one hundred percent delightful. If you want a wine that is refreshing, delicious, and much more interesting than your run-of-the-mill glou glou that passes for wine these days, then look no further. Passetoutgrain is a malleable style that originally consisted of field blends containing Gamay and Pinot Noir, but traditionally could include some of the white grapes of Burgundy. This one is all red, and all of the fruit is sourced from Hudelot-Baillet's vineyards in Chambolle-Musigny. Enjoy these wines now as Passetoutgrains are headed towards extinction. Planting exclusively Pinot Noir can fetch much higher prices in the market.

Here one finds renditions of Pinot Noir that deliver power with finesse and grace, wines that have unimaginable depth of flavor, yet are perfectly balanced and ephemeral in the mouth - in short, wines that deliver all that Pinot Noir has to offer. Terroir, the concept that wines from a specific region have unique and identifiable traits, is intricately...

Burgundy

The range of wine styles offered in Burgundy rivals that of any other region. In Chablis, Chardonnay is left unoaked to produce lean, crisp, steely wines with incredible acidity - a far cry from the vanilla-oak bombs that so many consumers associate with this grape. Fans of rich, unctuous, and well-oaked Chardonnay will enjoy Chassagne-Montrachet, whose age-worthy offerings offer all the fatness of a California wine, yet retain a very Burgundian, mineral-driven core and great acidity....
