    Somm Note

    Winemaker Notes

    This village wine is an elegant representation of Meursault with ripe and rich fruit and undercurrents of minerality. Notes of almond and lime leaf on the nose, while the entry is bold and juicy and fills the mid-palate. Long and lingering finish. An authentic and true representation of the region.

    Rajat Parr is considered one of the greatest sommeliers of our time and has a particular affection for the wines of Burgundy. Rajat Parr’s devotion to Burgundy is well-known. Since his earliest days as a Sommelier in San Francisco, the great reds and whites of the Cote d'Or have been his muses. The restaurants he has created and the wines he makes are all inspired from his deep love of Burgundy.

    Meaning the “home at the edge of the forest,” the creation of the negociant house Maison L'Oree is Rajat’s first opportunity to help produce the very wines that have inspired his life.

    For both the avid consumer of Burgundian wines and the newcomer to this often-intimidating region, Maison L’Orée presents the opportunity to explore the region via vetted, curated selections from a passionate advocate of the area.

    Guided by Rajat’s palate and knowledge, Maison L’Orée offers small quantities of hand-selected wines from Rajat’s favorite vineyard sites in Burgundy.

    One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While it tends to flourish in most environments, Chardonnay from its Burgundian homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. California produces both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines. Somm Secret—The Burgundian subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style. Anyone who doesn't like oaky Chardonnay would likely enjoy Chablis.

    A legendary wine region setting the benchmark for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay worldwide, Burgundy is a perennial favorite of many wine lovers. While the concept of ‘terroir’ reigns supreme here—soil type, elevation and angle of each slope—this is a region firmly rooted in tradition. Because of the Napoleonic Code requiring equal distribution of property and land among all heirs, vineyard ownership in Burgundy is extremely fragmented, with some growers responsible for just one or two rows of vines. This system has led to the predominance of the "negociant"—a merchant who purchases fruit from many different growers to vinify and bottle together.

    Burgundy’s cool, continental climate and Jurassic limestone soils are perfect for the production of elegant, savory and mineral-driven Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with plenty of acidity. Vintage variation is of particular importance for Burgundy wine, as weather conditions can be variable and unpredictable. In some years spring frost and hail must be overcome.

    The Côte d’Or, a long and narrow escarpment, forms the heart of the region, split into the Côte de Nuits to the north and the Côte de Beaune to the south. The former is home to many of the world’s finest Pinot Noir wines, while Chardonnay plays a much more prominent role in the latter, though outstanding red and white Burgundy wines are produced throughout. Other key appellations include the Côte Chalonnaise, home to great value Pinot Noir and sparkling Crémant de Bourgogne. The Mâconnais produces soft and round, value-driven Chardonnay while Chablis, the northernmost region of Burgundy, is a paradise for any lover of bright, acid-driven and often age-worthy versions of the grape.
