some Bouchard, Gouges, Mongeard-Mugneret (sentimental attachment to Anne Mongeard)

Expensive - Meo Camuzet

Reasonable - Henri Gouges

Never had a Gouges. How does it compare with Chevillon? Gouges probably gets my vote for ugliest wine label ever :slight_smile:

Clos des Lambrays
Comte Armand
Mugneret-Gibourg
Lafarge
Chevillon

Rouget, Roumier, Lambrays, Mugneret-Gibourg, and if Truchot (retired) is allowed, then I choose Jayer.

Very simple label…but ugly? Gouges is classic and not overstated. Not sure how they compare to Chevillon…I’ve only had a couple of them.

Eye of the beholder but I don’t like cheesy PMS green color they use on the label for the reversed out vineyard names. I’m in the printing business and like cool art. Wouldn’t stop me from drinking and possibly loving the wine in the btl though :slight_smile: They still seem priced right.

Gouge: ugly labeled burgundy, for the patient.

I wouldn’t take Dujac out of the running because I still buy most of their village and a few premier cru wines (namely the 1er MSD) every year (and love them immensely)…

My list would include:
Fourrier (but probably not for much longer)
Mugneret-Gibourg (but probably not for much longer)
Jadot
l’Arlot
D’Angerville

Hey! That’s my cellar!

Seriously, add Lambrays, Lignier, and Eugenie and subtract a few and we’re pretty close. I’d add Lamarche but they had about ten seconds during which the quality was high and the prices were fair.

That’s an awfully short list :slight_smile:


I couldn’t narrow it down to a few Craig.

Faiveley
Jadot
Lambrays
Morot
Bize
Ecard

no Lecheneaut or Serafin?

Mugneret-Gibourg
Marquis d’Angerville
Grivot

I don’t love Serafin Alan and never had a Lecheneaut.

I guess that the Domaine doesn’t really exist anymore, but my runaway Number One would have been Rene Engel.

And I actually think that Vincent Girardin makes some nice Pinot, but his wines will need decades to settle down and show any secondary or tertiary notes.

Another outfit that I have really enjoyed is Domaine Forey [not to be confused with Fourrier].

And I once had a very nice Lécheneaut.

Not sure why mugnier excluded. In no particular order.

Grivot
Roumier
Hudelot noellat
Mugneret gibourg

Or maybe fourrier, gouges, Dujac, faiveley jadot
