Paris, France
Why is pinot noir from Burgundy so much more subtle than pinot noir from California?
What two main characteristics do the French look for in their wine?
What makes a gamay from Beaujolais such an excellent, less expensive alternative to ultra-pricey Burgundies like Romanée Conti?
Which French wine can literally age for over a century?
As long-time members of the Bonner Private Wine Partnership will know, we recently imported a few thousand bottles of wine from France.
Our club “sommelier,” retired winemaker Julien Miquel, took the opportunity to produce a two-part video crash course on French wines.
As a Bordeaux educated oenologist who has made wine at some of the greatest wineries in France, Julien knows a thing or two.
For those of you who haven’t seen the two-part course yet, we invite you check it out right now:
That’s all for this week... next week, we talk Champagne.
