2021 Burgundy Report Highlights:
“The 2021 reds are supple, fleshy and perfumed, at their best uniting the concentration of low yields and surprisingly good phenolic maturity with the vibrant, perfumed profiles of a cooler vintage. Their pHs are relatively high, so the wines are broad, open and charming. They’re unlikely to shut down. Among recent years, the outgoing, fragrant 2017s are the closest point of comparison; but a better analogy is with a cleaner, more concentrated version of the 2000 vintage. They may not last for a century, but if the best 2000s have aged gracefully for two decades, the 2021s, produced from lower yields of more carefully sorted fruit, should be able to develop in the cellar for at least as long.” - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate (1/2023)
