It has been a while that we haven't offered a “Tasted and Recommended” offer and these are the wines you should try… I couldn't hide my smiles when I tasted these pairs, the Albert Morot Beaune Bressandes 1er Cru 2002 & 2005. These bottles are sourced from a private cellar in France and the humidity affected the labels, however the qualities are absolutely fantastic. Albert Morot is a domaine located in Beaune which produces 10 appellations, they are farmed organically and only maintain 8 hectares of vineyards in Beaune, Savigny-les-Beaune and Pommard nowadays.

Domaine de Montille is probably one of the most inspiring stories in Burgundy – starting off with a very small domaine with only 2.5 hectares of vineyard in the 1950s, Hubert de Montille had been managing the domaine and also retaining his profession as a lawyer at the same time. Hubert’s son, Etienne, started to take on more responsibilities at the Domaine from the 1990s and successfully led Domaine de Montille to become one of the leading producers in Burgundy.
