Just puttering through our shelves, we discovered we have quite a few topflight Burgundies from the 2008 and 2009 vintages. Both reds and whites from the much-lauded 09 vintages drink superbly even now yet experts agree that these wines will cellar well. The 08 whites show the classic strains of Chardonnay at its best. Quantities are always limited with Burgundies, especially so when the vintages prove so outstanding. Enjoy the luxury of some of the world’s greatest wines!
