About the SessionA fine selection of white Burgundy, spanning the full range of the region's great Chardonnay appellations - from the flinty, mineral wines of Chablis through to the richer, more textured expressions of the Côte de Beaune. Highlights include Grand Cru bottlings from Chevalier-Montrachet, Bâtard-Montrachet and Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet, alongside benchmark Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet from names such as Roulot, Coche-Bizouard and Etienne Sauzet. Producers represented range from grower-estates to celebrated négociant houses, offering collectors an excellent cross-section of what white Burgundy does best.

Critics Ratings
“Intense and really big! Green fruit but alcohol evident. Overall demonstrating the concentration of Perrières with, in this case, a hint of almonds.” - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20 (Jul 2021)
“The 2018 Meursault Les Perrières 1er Cru has a delineated, focused bouquet with yellow plum and white flower scents. Discrete at first but it opens with time in the glass. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, taut and quite saline. Good extract here and it develops a very seductive, smooth texture after ten minutes in the glass. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 white tasting.” - Neal Martin, Vinous, 92/100 (May 2022)
“This white is bright and juicy, popping with flavors of peach, apricot, even pineapple, shaded by baking spices, butter and honey. Fine, lingering finish.” - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (May 2021)
