Upstairs at Regional Wines

Widely regarded as one of the finest white Burgundy vintages of the 21st century, 2010 has earned a reputation for exceptional balance and finesse.
 
Sixteen years on, the wines should be fully mature, so it seems an ideal moment to explore a selection of Premier and Grand Cru examples. Our tasting spans the celebrated villages of Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, Meursault, Chablis, Beaune, and Corton-Charlemagne. All of the Burgundies are sealed under traditional cork closures.
 
For contrast and comparison, we have also included three leading New Zealand Chardonnays from the same vintage—each bottled under screwcap—to highlight stylistic and structural differences across regions and closures.
