Questions re 2012 Burgundy

Post by JimHow »

I've been looking to get some Burgundies into my cellar.
Any thoughts on the prices on this MacArthurs inventory reduction sale?
The last price on each line is the sale price.

I bought and tasted this: excellent but I paid less than your reduced price

I liked the Dom. Laurent wines 2012 I have had and the prices look attractive

Some of the discounted prices are high, so check WineSearcher before you order.

At the low end, Jadot's 1er Cru Beaune wines are generally good and have good values. The Mac prices on the Theurons is the lowest in the country. It is usually better than the Beaune Greves.

Chapelle Chambertin - Drouhin Laroze caught my eye, but it is $40 less at JJ Buckley.

Nuits St. Georges Murgers - Alain Hudelot-Noellat is usually very good. But the Zachy's price on it is lower.

Nuits St. Georges Pruliers - Henri Gouges is also very good in most years, but as Antoine noted, the price is high. Another drawback is the Gouges takes a long time to come around.

Ok thanks that's helpful information, I've got about 100 bottles of Burgundy in my cellar, I'm looking to maybe add in a mixed case but really never know where to begin when it comes to Burgundy.

From what I've seen, you like Volnay. Try Chambolle Musigny, maybe Nuits St Georges. Romanee St Vivant is also great.

Producer is key, I like Gouges for NSG. Jadot and Drouhin for everything. Never had a bad Bruno Clavelier or Hudelot Noellat. Dominique Laurent has a reputation for heavily oaked wines, I never found a heavy hand there and thought his wines were always tasty.

The vintage is supposed to be good. I have not tried any but I think vintage generalisations in Burgundy are useless. 1999 was supposed to be great and I find the wines still hard and charmless. 2001, 2002, 2007 are supposedly weak but I find them elegant and delicious. 2004 and 2011 are allegedly herbacious , I couldnt' notice any green streak in the ones I've had.
Best
