2019 Burgundy Report from Fine & Rare

My pleasure! I need to take an early night as I have another big tasting day tomorrow, but before I have time to give you a more thorough response this video I made might answer some of your questions:

William, you did a wonderful job of framing 2019 against recent vintages. This is very helpful - thanks so much!

Agreed, and I am not a social media guy however I think I might start to follow along for diamonds like this.

Hell, I literally just downloaded Instagram after watching it!

You guys are too kind! Thank you!

Great report, but knowing we all love backround settings on Instagram…is this your apartment? Looks like you live in a room in Versailles. Independently wealthy? [popcorn.gif]

Yes, it is! It’s a mid eighteenth-century house (on a 17th-century base) with mid 19th-century additions, that used to belong the the Knights of Malta before the Revolution. It was divided up into apartments in 1985. We bought a few years ago… interest rates are very low in France, and the process surprisingly straightforward (though it is a good test of how well one speaks the language).
