BURGUNDY REPORT VINTAGE 2023

The 2023 Burgundy vintage delivers a welcome return to elegance and freshness, despite being a warm year. Unlike typical hot vintages, these wines maintain poise without veering into excessive ripeness, thanks to balanced rainfall and a moderate alcohol profile. Growers faced challenges with mildew and ripening unevenness but adapted through green harvesting and careful picking strategies. The result? Whites that are expressive, full yet vibrant, and reds that are ripe, silky, and terroir-transparent. While yields were high, meticulous sorting preserved quality, and top producers like Roumier, Dujac, and PYCM crafted standout wines. Think of it as a fresher, better 2018—or even a modern echo of 1999. A vintage well worth exploring.
