From one of the relatively unknown and elite producers in Burgundy and a close friend of the illustrious Jean François Coche’s son, Raphael. Even this Bourgogne Blanc comes from old vines in Meursault which clearly evident in the wine. Vibrant energy and acidity intertwines with lemon curd, hazelnuts, a pixelated minerality and a striking intensity. Maybe lacking the depth and length of premier cru burgs, but what a tremendous entry level Bourgogne this is and a true over performer. — 4 years ago

One of my favorite Gamay bottles I’ve ever had. I love it dearly. Have another bottle in the cellar! — 5 years ago
Dig. Hearty wine with some earthiness and funk but not overbearing. Had with a meat based pasta. Great price point, I’d buy again. — 5 years ago

2021 Regnie “La Ranze” By Dm Raphael Chopin. Absolutely fabulous. Could easily be mistaken for a fine Pinot. Christmas spices with bright red fruit aromas and flavors. A backbone of black stones . Elegant texture.
