Domaine Darviot-Perrin, Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru 'Les Bondues' (Rouge)

The Darviot-Perrin, 'Les Bondues' is a brilliant ruby-red moving to magenta at the rim, with an extremely inviting nose loaded with fresh, ripe notes of red and black cherry, wild strawberry, and cranberry mixed with wet rose petals and forest floor/underbrushy quality. The minerality and tannin is subtle and fine-grained, and the fruit generous—it should age nicely over the short term, about 5 years, but it is quite approachable now. Decant it about a half hour before serving in Burgundy stems at 60-65 degrees. Medium-bodied, with a subtle smokiness, this would be fantastic with some grilled salmon, prepared simply as in the attached recipe. This wine has got everything you could ask for in serious red Burgundy, without the serious red Burgundy price

France

Bourgogne

Beaujolais

Enjoying the greatest wines of Beaujolais starts, as it usually does, with the lay of the land. In Beaujolais, 10 localities have been given their own AOC (Appellation of Controlled Origin) designation. They are: Saint Amour; Juliénas; Chénas; Moulin-à Vent; Fleurie; Chiroubles; Morgon; Régnié; Côte de Brouilly; and Brouilly.

Southwestern France

Bordeaux

Bordeaux surrounds two rivers, the Dordogne and Garonne, which intersect north of the city of Bordeaux to form the Gironde Estuary, which empties into the Atlantic Ocean. The region is at the 45th parallel (California’s Napa Valley is at the38th), with a mild, Atlantic-influenced climate enabling the maturation of late-ripening varieties.

Central France

Loire Valley

The Loire is France’s longest river (634 miles), originating in the southerly Cévennes Mountains, flowing north towards Paris, then curving westward and emptying into the Atlantic Ocean near Nantes. The Loire and its tributaries cover a huge swath of central France, with most of the wine appellations on an east-west stretch at47 degrees north (the same latitude as Burgundy).

Northeastern France

Alsace

Alsace, in Northeastern France, is one of the most geologically diverse wine regions in the world, with vineyards running from the foothills of theVosges Mountains down to the Rhine River Valley below.
