For me this Santenay 2013 vintage 1er cru from Bachey Legros does it. Aged properly it is an earthy, blackberry and cassis dream nose with a cherry palate and that vanilla, tar and leather finish that only Bourgogne can do.

    That sounds amazing! But also expensive . . .

  2. Great vineyard from a super underrated village.

    It sounds like something I’d associate more with a hot climate Syrah or Cabernet blend, if I’m honest. I don’t want my Bourgogne tasting of cassis and oaky vanilla. Would you say it’s representative of classic burgundy?

    Taurassi. A warm lasting embrace, with a subtle hidden grope at the end.
