Francois Lumpp, Bourgogne Rouge La Paulee 2016
Regular price $55.00 Save $-55.00Variety: Pinot Noir
François Lumpp is technically a second-generation winemaker in the Côte Chalonnaise, which is perhaps the least well-known of all Burgundy regions. He and his brother inherited a vineyard from their father in the 1970s. But by 1990, he was ready to put a stake in his vision of a top quality and site-specific vineyard in Givry. (There are no grand cru vineyards in Givry, so premier cru is the top classification.) François and his wife Isabelle planted and nurtured all of the vines on about 9 hectares of vineyard property. He is a true vigneron, making only Pinot Noire and Chardonnay wines from Givry from 11 of the best premier cru parcels – a rare business model in today’s modern Burgundy where big négociant firms and outside investors rule the day in the big, well-known regions of the Côte d’Or. Son Pierre and daughter Anne-Cécile have joined the family business.
This domain flies under the radar in the Givry village of Côte Chalonnaise, which is possibly the least familiar subregion of Burgundy. Making this wine from vines Francois nurtured himself, La Paulée delivers Premier Cru quality while maintaining the Bourgogne Rouge status.

Bernard Defaix, Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2020
Regular price $30.00 Save $-30.00Variety: Pinot Noir
The Defaix family is a fourth generation of a family of vine-growers rich in personality. Bernard Defaix started the vineyard in 1959 with 2 ha. Vineyard holdings across the Chablis region of Burgundy have expanded to 27 ha including three Premier Cru vineyards (Côte de Léchet, Vaillons and Lys) and others in the Chablis and Petit Chablis appellations. Bernard’s sons Sylvain and Didier have been managing the domain for about twenty years, handling winemaking and vineyard operations, respectively. Didier’s wife, Helene, handles administration and sales. Although this is a small property – common in France – the Defaix family undertook an extensive study of their vineyard soils to better understand vine root systems and the impact of mechanized vineyard operations. From 2012, they have been producing organic wines.
This is an approachable Pinot Noir classified as an AOC Bourgogne Rouge bottling. The vines come exclusively from a vineyard in Auxerre, which is just outside of Chablis. It is simply aged in 2-3 year old barrels to optimize the freshness of the fruit. This is a wine to drink now and with all manner of food.

Domaine Taupenot-Merme, Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2018
Regular price $50.00 Save $-50.00Variety: Pinot Noir
Romain Taupenot is in fact, the ninth generation of Burgundy domaine of Taupenot-Merme. Though the winery actually dates back to the 17th century, the current name comes from both of Romaine’s parents. His career flip-flopped from helping in the vineyard as a child, followed by a career in finance leading him to Paris. Later on, he returned home to assume management of the domaine by the side of his sister, Virginie. The family farms organically across just short of 14 hectares between both Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. Romain refers to himself as a “lazy winemaker,” in regards to spending more time in the vineyards, but less in the cellar.
It is clear that just as much attention to detail is paid to this Bourgogne Rouge as it is to the domaine’s top wines. All the fruit is hand harvested and completely destemmed. The Pinot Noir is aged just over a year in oak before its release. This is a perfect entry level bottle from a flagship producer of Burgundy.

Buisson-Charles, Bourgogne Pinot Noir "Hautes Coutures" 2019
Regular price $50.00 Save $-50.00Variety: Pinot Noir
Buisson-Charles has been an insider secret for years, though with a bit of international attention, the wines are now in the spotlight. Michel Buisson is the third generation of this winery, now verging on 80 years old and still tending to the vines. His daughter Catherine and her husband, Patrick, have become the faces of the new generation. The domaine’s approach is modest with less new oak usage and production at 35,000 bottles, though the wines themselves are anything but modest. 12 hectares of vines comprise the estate, most of it based in Meursault from very old vines ranging from 65-100 years old. The style of Buisson Charles is classic and restrained; the wines attest to this in volumes.
This Bourgogne Rouge comes from a couple of parcels located between the villages of Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet from vines averaging over 50 years in age. Ageing is done in barrels, 25% of which are new. This is rich and voluptuous, yet easily enjoyed now or in a few years.
