98pt Thorne & Daughters Rocking Horse 2024 – a triumph
Thorne & Daughters’ Rocking Horse is the ‘poster child for new-wave white blends’. It’s been a top performer for more than a decade, and the 98-point 2024 is ‘a wine of presence’, says Christian Eedes. Taking its aesthetic from white Burgundy, rather than the Rhône, this multi-variety blend offers immense value at R370. In 2025, the Cat’s Cradle sees the inclusion […] The post 98pt Thorne & Daughters Rocking Horse 2024 – a triumph appeared first on Wine Cellar Plus .

Time to rediscover aligoté
There’s something of the ugly duckling about the aligoté grape in Burgundy. For a long time, it was relegated to being blended with blackcurrant liqueur for the aperitif kir. But things are happening now — in fact, they have been for several years. Aligoté is starting to take a more prominent place among the white […] Continue reading: Time to rediscover aligoté The post Time to rediscover aligoté was originally published on BKWine Magazine and written by Britt Karlsson .

Enter the Meursault megastars
How do you make steely, just-bottled white Burgundy from a cool vintage look even more razor-sharp? Serve it in a Meursault shed just days after the end of winter. So it was when I rocked up to day six of this Grand Jours de Bourgogne adventure, walking into another tonnellerie (the Tonnellerie Damy if you're playing Google Maps spotto at home) with icy breath and jacket buttoned right up. It didn't hurt the wines, though. I don't think anything can. The post Enter the Meursault megastars appeared first on Australian Wine and Drinks Review .

The quest for value in ‘Outer Burgundy’
Welcome to another instalment of 'these are all the Burgundies I've tasted recently', a collection of indulgent tasting highlights from my visit to the Grand Jours de Bourgogne 2026 (a week-long wine fair in this famed French wine region in early March). So far in this series, I've looked at how much Chablis I can taste in one session, been bedazzled by a smorgasbord of Vosne mega-wines, tasted many mercurial Mâconnais whites, worked through a challenging lineup from the Côte de Nuits, and topped it with some Volnay/Pommard seduction. Today, I'm tackling something important - Burgundy that nudges closer to being affordable. Sort of. For this quest, I'm turning to some lesser-known producers and wines from what Jancis Robinson calls 'Outer Burgundy' (the appellations beyond the famous Côte d'Or), with a particular focus on the cradle of Burgundian bargains, the Côte Chalonnaise.

Grands Jours in Burgundy
Spotlight on the 2023 and 2024 Burgundy vintages across the Côte d’Or. The 2023 vintage stands out for its generosity, high yields, and wines that are fruity, balanced, and approachable even in their youth. The 2024 vintage, marked by extreme weather conditions, low yields, and rigorous selection, produces precise, taut, and concentrated wines with remarkable aging potential. The event concludes with a tasting of the 2016 Clos Vougeot, a prime example of the depth and complexity of great Burgundy wines.
