BURGUNDY CÔTEDENUITS

each year, the beady-eyedwill notice thewalnut harvest in full swing, little carts stacked to the brim. StephaneMagnien , one of our excellent Morey producers, has awalnut tree in front of his chai. An excellent post-tasting palate cleanser on a coldNovembermorning! It is the winewe are always there to taste however. We like to build long relationships with our growers in some cases we are nowworkingwith the second or third generation of the family. Each year we come across estates we’d like to start workingwith and recent additions to our offerings includeHenri Magnien andDomaine Tessier. In terms of joyful drinking the Côte deNuits produces earlymaturing Bourgogne and Villagewine, and immensely long-lived 1er andGrandCrus – so there’s something for everyone. Learning about theworld’smost complex regionwhence “terroir” originated is a huge pleasure. Tastingwith the likes of Thibault Liger-Belair is superb and youunderstand his scientific and artistic attention to his craft. We all continue to learn each year – as do the vignerons with every growing season. Tom Meade
