1971 Vintage Burgundy Wine Tasting

Give me a taste of your fine, fine, wine.  Ruby Sticky, sweet as summertime.

Fine, Fine Wine - Motley Cru

If you have been paying attention to my propaganda over the years you know that Burgundy is one of my favorite wine regions of the world and when we recently acquired these old wines from one of our cellar acquisitions I immediately set these old dogs aside for scientific evaluation.  I have never had a selection of 1971 Burgundy like this in the store and when we received this collection the first thing I did was set some of the top wines aside for this tasting with 1971 being my all time favorite old vintage from Burgundy I knew these wines were destined for one of our “Once in a Lifetime” Vintage Burgundy events. 

We even have a few of these wines available for sale and right now we have an incredible collection of Burgundies from the 1960’s and 1970’s in the store right now, so I have included them on this offering.
